Trevor Hunnicutt, White House Correspondent with Reuters, joins LiveNOW’s Andy Mac to discuss the complex ceasefire with Iran, the Strait of Hormuz, NATO, and more.
Iran and the United States have agreed to a two-week ceasefire. The deal allows President Donald Trump to pull back from his Tuesday threat where he said a “whole civilization will die” if a deal wasn’t reached. However, some attacks in Iran and Gulf Arab countries continued Wednesday.
At a White House press briefing Wednesday, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said the ceasefire is subject to no tolls through the Strait of Hormuz.
Leavitt referenced President Trump’s social media post stating the agreement was conditional on the “COMPLETE, IMMEDIATE, and SAFE OPENING” of the strait.
Trump also posted about NATO on Truth Social Wednesday as he was scheduled to meet with the military alliance’s Secretary General Mark Rutte.
“NATO WASN’T THERE WHEN WE NEEDED THEM, AND THEY WON’T BE THERE IF WE NEED THEM AGAIN. REMEMBER GREENLAND, THAT BIG, POORLY RUN, PIECE OF ICE!!! President DJT”
The White House confirmed Trump had been considering withdrawing the U.S. from NATO and planned to discuss that with Rutte.
