President Trump Holds a Press Conference, Jun. 17, 2026

Published | Video Starts at 00:44

I would say it's one of the most successful and this meeting could not have come at a better time. On Sunday, we reached an agreement with Iran that achieves everything we set out to accomplish, everything and much more. Ending the current conflict, reopening the Strait of Hormuz and preventing Iran from ever obtaining a nuclear weapon. That's what it was all about. That was about 99%. Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon. They can't develop it, buy it. They can never have a nuclear weapon. (00:44–00:54)

CLAIM

Asserts that the agreement with Iran ends conflict, reopens the Strait of Hormuz, and prevents Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons.
