US President Donald Trump was returning from China to the United States when he told reporters on Air Force One that he only agreed to a ceasefire with Iran as a “favour” to Pakistan. He said that he would not have supported it but only did it as a request from another nation.
“We did the ceasefire as a request from another nation. I wouldn’t have been in favour of it, but we did it as a favour to Pakistan. They are terrific people, the Field Marshal and the Prime Minister,” Trump said.
The US president reiterated his decision that he does not allow Iran to acquire nuclear weapons and that Tehran should give up the enriched uranium that it has accumulated over the years.
