Trump alone will decide when Iran has ‘unconditionally surrendered,’ says Leavitt

Описание: What will it look like for Iran to deliver an “UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER,” as U.S. President Donald Trump demanded Friday?

The president will decide, his spokeswoman said a few hours later.

“What the president means is that when he, as commander in chief of the U.S. Armed Forces, determines that Iran no longer poses a threat to the United States of America and the goals of Operation Epic Fury has been fully realized, then Iran will essentially be in a place of unconditional surrender, whether they say it themselves or not,” she told reporters in the White House driveway.

“Frankly,” she went on, “they don’t have a lot of people to say that for them, because the United States and the State of Israel have completely wiped out near more than 50 leaders of the former terrorist regime, including the supreme leader himself.”

Leavitt’s explanation, like Trump’s post from earlier in the day, stopped short of making any specific demands that Iranian leaders renounce their nuclear ambitions or terror groups.
