1. He better watch his mouth… or we will take over the rest of the country.
2. And you don't have to knock down an apartment house every time you're looking for somebody because there are a lot of people in those apartment houses and they're not all Hezbollah. That I can tell you.
3. Israel is fighting Hezbollah too long, and too many people are being killed.
4. Iran must immediately stop their highly paid PROXIES in Lebanon from causing trouble. If they don't, we'll hit Iran very hard again, just like we did last week, only harder!!!
5. You close it and you won't have a country. You won't even make it back to your fucking country.

1. What we told the Iranians yesterday is when you guys engage in what us millennials might call trash talk, you can't expect the president of the United States not to respond and not to correct the record.
2. Yes, they did threaten to walk out, or at least there were social media threats that they would walk out. But we were negotiating well past 1 in the morning yesterday, so they didn't walk out.
3. What I did find kind of funny is that after that initial meeting, there was this, you know, sort of social media firestorm where everybody said the Iranians are going to leave.
4. It's important for all of us to appreciate how much was done, but honestly, there is still a lot to do as we continue to make progress on the nuclear talks, on the economic talks, as we continue to demine the straits and ensure that that flow of traffic continues to pick back up.
5. We laid a very good foundation for a successful final deal.
6. I expect that will happen at the minimum this week, but we think even some of those conversations with the inspectors and with the IAEA could happen as soon as today.
7. If we ever unfreeze Iranian assets, we can ensure that... Iranian money goes to help the people of Iran and not to fund terrorism.
8. The Iranians have agreed to invite IAEA inspectors back into their country. That is a major milestone for the American people. And the first step in permanently denuclearising- permanently ending a nuclear weapons program in Iran.
9. We set the foundation. We haven't built the house, but we've laid a successful foundation to get to a good place for the American people.
10. Yesterday was a very, very good day. We made a lot of good progress. We did exactly what we wanted to do.
11. Peace is never easy. Peace always requires a little bit of work. It always requires a little bit of give and take.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Israeli Government
1. Our fighters in southern Lebanon have full operational freedom to thwart any direct or emergent threat against them or residents of the north.
David Mencer
Israeli Government
1. We feel that there is no reason why an agreement with Lebanon cannot be taken forward.
Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf
Iranian National Security Council
1. They would do better to be careful about their statements. Our armed forces are prepared to respond to them in a different manner. They may keep talking, it is we who act.
Abbas Araqchi
Iranian Foreign Ministry
1. Mediation has delivered major progress to end Lebanon War. Oil and petrochem exports are waived, blockade lifted, some frozen assets released, and major reconstruction & development plan launched for Iran.
Masoud Pezeshkian
Iranian Government
1. Such a level of consensus has never existed before.
2. Any message that leads to division and separation is playing into the enemy's hands.
Tim Hawkins
US Central Command
1. Iran does not control the Strait of Hormuz. Traffic continues to flow, and U.S. forces are monitoring the situation to ensure this remains the case.
