AFP Question (hereinafter referred to as Q): After reaching an agreement with Iran today, would you declare victory?
Trump Answer (hereinafter referred to as A): "Complete and total victory, 100 percent. No problem, no doubt about it."
Q: However, it seems many issues are still not agreed upon, such as the Strait of Hormuz issue?
A: "Well, I don't know. We have many clauses. We have a 15-point agreement, and most of it has been agreed upon. We'll see how it develops, and if we can see it through to the end."
(Editor's Note: The 15-point agreement Trump refers to is a proposal disclosed by Israeli media on March 25th, transferred by the US to Iran. It includes a 30-day ceasefire, dismantling of Iran's nuclear facilities, Iran's commitment never to develop nuclear weapons, limits on Iran's ballistic missile range and quantity, reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, and lifting of all sanctions on Iran.)
Q: If they do not agree (reach an agreement), will you resume your original threats?
Q: If I may ask one more question, Mr. President, did China participate in prompting Iran to come to the negotiating table?
Trump: "Is that all? (If not handled perfectly, I won't approve.) Alright, thank you."(Translator: Chen Yi-wei) 1150408
