United States President Donald Trump provided information regarding his talks with Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Drawing attention to his contacts in Beijing and his meeting with the Chinese leader, Trump said: "President Xi told me during our last meeting in Beijing, China, that under no circumstances would he provide or sell weapons to the Islamic Republic of Iran, and that statement also covered Chinese companies. Considering our relationship, I trust his word, and I am also doing him very big favors."

Trump stated that Russian President Vladimir Putin had similarly taken such a position, saying: "Likewise, President Putin, despite the terrible war continuing in Ukraine, with the relationship continuing as it does with President Zelenskyy, told me that he would not sell weapons to Iran."

Commenting on US arms sales and relations with NATO, Trump said: "They understand that I am selling weapons not to Ukraine, but to NATO countries. They are paying full price, and I have no idea how those weapons are being distributed."

Emphasizing the position of global powers on Iran, Trump concluded: "Therefore, the two major countries that people frequently mention in the context of Iran, in my opinion, are not participating. If they do participate, it will be very bad for them and certainly not in their own interests."
