President Trump takes questions from reporters at G7 Summit

[0:00] And this morning, another busy day underway for President Trump [0:04] as he meets with world leaders at the G7 summit in France. [0:07] Right now, President Trump is taking questions after speaking to the president of the UAE, [0:13] the United Arab Emirates. Let's listen in. [0:17] JCPOA, it is the worst agreement. [0:21] That was a road to a nuclear weapon. [0:23] Mine is a wall against a nuclear weapon. [0:26] I mean, I see these people say, but we already had one. [0:28] That was the words. He paid a fortune for it. We paid nothing. [0:31] We don't pay. There was some statement, we're going to spend $300 million. [0:35] No, we're not. We're allowed to go and invest if we wanted to someday in the future. [0:40] We have no obligation whatsoever. [0:42] It could be that Iran will turn out to be successful when they have oil. [0:47] But if we left a week ago, just left, before the last two attacks, [0:56] it would have taken them 20 years to rebuild Iran. [0:59] But I'll go over the document with the media in a couple of days. [1:05] Mr. President, a few weeks back, you said you'd like to see other nations join the Abraham Accords, [1:11] much like the UAE has. [1:12] Have there been any discussions with Arab leaders about that? [1:15] About what? [1:16] Joining the Abraham Accords like the UAE has. [1:18] Well, I'd love to have them. [1:20] This is a man who's very advanced. [1:22] He was early in, and he's done very well with them, the whole, the Abraham Accords. [1:27] No, it's, I think they should happen. [1:33] The big impediment to the Abraham Accords, we have our original countries, very smart countries, [1:40] every one of them. [1:41] Do you notice that even during that period of conflict, nobody dropped out. [1:45] Nobody said, oh, gee, I'm going to drop out. [1:47] Nobody. [1:47] I think they're all going to come in, you know, into the Abraham Accords. [1:52] The only conflict was a place called Iran. [1:58] And I understand that. [1:59] You know, it's a little bit tough when people were afraid of Iran. [2:04] So, but I think they're going to all start coming in. [2:07] Good question, actually. [2:09] Mr. President, what do you say to Republicans like Senator Lindsey Graham, [2:14] who was skeptical of the MOU, to- [2:19] Lindsey is skeptical? [2:20] Yes. [2:21] I'll have to talk to Lindsey. [2:22] He'll be in big trouble. [2:25] Lindsey's good. [2:26] Lindsey's fine. [2:27] He's not skeptical. [2:28] He's just fine. [2:29] Look, this agreement covers something very nicely. [2:33] We're not paying for anything. [2:34] We're not doing anything. [2:36] The markets now are higher than they were when we started. [2:39] Remember that. [2:40] The stock market now is 2,500, maybe even more than that, points higher than it was when we [2:46] think it's pretty amazing. [2:50] Disagreements about one thing, that Iran will never have a nuclear weapon. [2:55] Never, ever, ever. [2:57] The rest of it's irrelevant, frankly. [2:59] Senator Graham also said that an eventual agreement with Iran should be sent to Congress [3:05] for review. [3:06] Would you do that? [3:07] I never thought of it, but I would. [3:10] I wouldn't mind. [3:11] I mean, you know, the Democrats, you know, we call them Democrats because they're dumb people. [3:15] The Democrats are, well, what I'd like to do is send it to Congress, [3:21] saying you shouldn't approve it, and I'll get it approved. [3:26] Whatever I say, they want to do the opposite. [3:29] It's not working too well for them, by the way. [3:32] But, yeah, I would. [3:33] I never thought about saying it. [3:34] I never even thought about it, but I will. [3:36] I will send it to Congress. [3:37] I like the idea. [3:38] On another topic. [3:40] I mean, who wouldn't approve it? [3:41] Let's let them have a nuclear weapon. [3:44] The Democrats will say, oh, they should have a nuclear weapon. [3:47] They'll go crazy. [3:48] I like the idea. [3:49] Send it to Congress, please. [3:50] Mr. President, were you briefed on the attack plans for the UFC event at the White House? [3:58] There was the FBI awarded an attack. [4:01] I haven't heard about it, no. [4:03] But I watched the attack that I watched were the fighters. [4:07] And he saw it, too, by the way. [4:08] He was sitting back home in his beautiful palace, and he was watching it. [4:12] And they were as good of fights as I've ever seen. [4:15] The best fight. [4:15] The best. [4:16] They were great. [4:17] That last fight was brutal. [4:19] Wow. [4:19] And the two last, all of the fights, it was all good. [4:24] It was a great evening. [4:25] It was very different for the White House. [4:27] But I wish you could have been there. [4:29] They, we built an incredible arena. [4:32] Dana did a great job. [4:33] Is there going to be another fight next year? [4:35] Well, I don't know. [4:38] I got away with it. [4:39] It's 250 years. [4:41] Maybe in another 50, maybe in 300. [4:45] Are you considering an increase on sanctions on Russia and whether to renew the oil? [4:50] Well, sooner we'll be able to do that because the oil is now flowing. [4:54] So we put, we took sanctions off because obviously we're not looking to impede the oil. [4:59] So we're in a position to do that soon. [5:01] Let them last. [5:03] Yeah, at some point. [5:04] Mr. President, I have a question. [5:07] Yes, sir. [5:07] Regarding the state. [5:08] What a nice looking person. [5:09] Is he from your country? [5:11] Is he from your country? [5:12] Absolutely. [5:12] No, he's got such a nice way about him. [5:14] My people are still, they're so mean. [5:17] A handsome guy can put him. [5:18] He can't put that. [5:20] No, I can put him, I can put him in a movie right now. [5:22] Go ahead. [5:23] Mr. President, how can we make sure that state hormones is lasting for, open for lasting [5:30] navigation in the future? [5:31] Have a United States with a strong president. [5:35] It's the only way you can do it, I guess. [5:37] When you think we have all the agreements you want. [5:40] The agreements for bad people don't mean anything. [5:44] Look, we were the ones that blockaded the sheet. [5:46] They blockaded it. [5:48] And we then said, well, we blockaded it for them. [5:50] So they didn't get any oil. [5:53] You're going to need to have, and this is true with a lot of things. [5:56] If you have a strong president of the United States, a lot of good things can happen. [6:02] You know that better than anybody, right? [6:06] Absolutely. [6:07] You know it better than anybody. [6:09] Stability of the military. [6:09] Can you talk a little bit more about the plan for the enriched uranium that is in the mountains? [6:14] Yeah, we do. [6:15] We'll take it. [6:15] Has Iran said they would welcome the U.S. coming in? [6:19] How specific is it? [6:20] Iran will be just fine. [6:22] What's happening is that at an appropriate time, there's no rush at all. [6:27] We have cameras from space on it. [6:28] We know everybody that goes there, which is like nobody. [6:33] The B-2 bombers hit it. [6:35] The entire mountain collapsed inside it. [6:38] It's a very tough excavation. [6:40] Nobody else can do it but us and probably China. [6:42] They have the equipment. [6:43] We have the equipment. [6:45] We're in no rush, but we get it. [6:47] And when we get it, we'll destroy it. [6:50] We're not looking to take it. [6:51] We're looking to destroy it. [6:52] We have plenty of it. [6:53] Tell the Versailles dinner tomorrow night. [6:57] What prompted you to go to that? [6:59] The dinner tomorrow night in Versailles. [7:00] So, well, I'm a fan of beautiful places. [7:05] And I was leaving in the afternoon, and then the French president, who happens to be a very [7:10] nice man, invited me to dinner at Versailles. [7:17] And Versailles is not a gold leaf. [7:20] Versailles is the real deal. [7:21] And I said, I'd like to do it. [7:23] I mean, you know, all it means is that I get home later in the evening, meaning early in [7:29] the morning, and I'm not a big sleeper anyway. [7:32] I'll be in the Oval Office very... [7:34] But I'm not into it. [7:35] But I'm going to be interesting. [7:35] I stopped in the morning, and I'm going to really do it like that.
