President Donald Trump said Friday that he’s heading to the Situation Room to make a “final determination” on the next steps with Iran. 
“Iran must agree that they will never have a Nuclear Weapon or Bomb. 
The Hormuz Strait must be immediately open, no tolls, for unrestricted shipping traffic, in both directions. 
All water mines (bombs), if any, will be terminated (we have removed, through detonation, numerous such mines with our great underwater mine sweepers. 
Iran will complete the immediate removal and/or detonation of any mines that are left, which will not be many!),” Trump began in a post on Truth Social. 
“Ships caught in the Strait due to our amazing and unprecedented Naval Blockade, which will now be lifted, may start the process of ‘heading home!’ 
Say HELLO to your wives, husbands, parents, and families from me, your favorite President!” 
Trump added. 
“The enriched material, sometimes referred to as ‘Nuclear Dust,’ which is buried deep underground with virtually collapsed mountains, caused by our powerful B2 Bomber attack 11 months ago, sitting on top of it, will be unearthed by the United States (which, it is agreed, is the only Country, along with China, with the mechanical capability of doing so!), in close coordination and conjunction with the Islamic Republic of Iran, plus the International Atomic Energy Agency, and DESTROYED,” the president also said. 
“No money will be exchanged, until further notice. 
Other items, of far less importance, have been agreed to. 
I will be meeting now, in the Situation Room, to make a final determination.”
