Trump said: “I think a lot of great things are going to happen in the Middle East right now, and most importantly, oil is going down and the stock market is going up like a rocket today.”

Trump added that he “felt very strongly that we had to go back on the offensive for two nights,” and said, “I hope we have a good relationship, and we get along.”

Trump is unsure whether he will attend the Iran deal signing

Trump said he was unsure whether he would attend the signing of the agreement to end the war in Iran on Friday.

“Well, it depends,” Trump said during a joint appearance with French President Emmanuel Macron. “Maybe I’m involved. Maybe I’m not.”

“J.D. was coming for it,” Trump said, referring to Vice President J.D. Vance.

Trump praises the Iran deal as promising, but it is not a guarantee.

“I hope we get along,” he says. “If we don’t do that, we’ll be right back where we started.”

Macron informed Trump that European forces are ready to deploy in the Strait of Hormuz

The French president said France could send fighter jets as early as Tuesday to conduct surveillance flights over the vital waterway and that a French nuclear-powered aircraft carrier already in the Middle East could quickly help as well.

This is part of the push by France and other G7 allies at their summit in Evian-les-Bains to reopen the strait as soon as possible so that energy supplies can flow freely again to global markets, following the initial agreement between the United States and Iran to end the war.

“Within 48 hours, frigates can also be deployed. Within two to three days, an aircraft carrier can be deployed,” Macron said.

“I don’t think we’re going to need a lot of help,” Trump said, because the Strait “will be open.”

Addressing Macron, Trump said: “But I don’t think it’s a bad idea to have one or two ships here from a few countries. It would be a great country to do that.”
