In a post on his X account, he emphasized that showing respect to Iranians—not using force or bombs—is the key to success.
He wrote:
“Iran, with a history spanning thousands of years, has never surrendered and never will. Our heroic armed forces, backed by the people, demonstrated that any aggressor—no matter who supports it—has always lost its gamble and will continue to lose. The ‘art of the deal’ with Iran requires respect, not bombs.”
