President Donald Trump expressed deep frustration with both Israel and Iran on Tuesday, criticizing their actions following a ceasefire agreement.
Trump made the comments while departing from the White House for a NATO summit, where he condemned Israel’s immediate response to the ceasefire by launching attacks on Iran.
“I’m not happy with Israel. You know, when I say, okay, now you have 12 hours, you don’t go out in the first hour and just drop everything you have on them. So I’m not happy with them. I’m not happy with Iran either, but I’m really unhappy if Israel is going out this morning,” Trump said.
He continued, “We basically have two countries that have been fighting for so long and so hard that they don’t know what they’re doing.”
“I’m gonna see if I can stop it,” he added.
