In recent months, we managed to ease the pressure by finding alternative export routes, including Saudi Arabia’s East-West pipeline, which bypasses the Strait of Hormuz. That pipeline was struck in recent days.

So today, we are at a very low level, with less than half of what is produced actually getting out.

Winter is coming, and some countries are now buying much more, whereas last spring those same countries reduced their consumption in order to adapt.

I do not want a military conflict between NATO and Russia, and I will do everything to ensure that Slovakia is not dragged into any irresponsible military adventure.

The war between Russia and Ukraine is not our war.

Under my government, nobody will send Slovak soldiers outside the territory of Slovakia under some fabricated pretext to fight against Russia or any other country.

At the strong request of the United States Military, and for National Security purposes, I have agreed to convert the magnificent Triumphal Arch, planned since the Civil War Era many years ago, at the Receptive Circle adjoining the Arlington Memorial Bridge, into a top grade Military Complex/Triumphal Arch, to house, store, and have the rapid ability to use large numbers of drones, plus Snipers, on both the roof and plaza areas, and additionally have and hold large quantities of sniper ammunition in storage.

There will be no facility like this anywhere in the World. Out of the 59 top cities and Capitals, Washington, D.C., IS THE ONLY ONE IN THE WORLD THAT DOES NOT HAVE A TRIUMPHAL ARCH, but it will now and, by far, the greatest of them all!

The plan includes expanding national-currency trade and independent banking channels, exploring central-bank digital currency payments, continued Rosatom work at Bushehr Units 1–3, Russian involvement in the Shadegan, Kish, and North Pars energy projects, and potentially manufacturing Russian aircraft components in Iran.

It also covers the Rasht-Astara railway and wider North-South Transport Corridor, Iranian investment in Russian port infrastructure, Russian technology and information-security contracts in Iran, and joint media projects and journalist training.

Approved in September 2024, the document predates the current U.S.-Iran war and does not confirm which projects remain active, although several have since advanced publicly.

The overall plan seeks to make Russia-Iran ties more institutionalized and resistant to Western sanctions and financial pressure.

I'm in a deciding mode and very big things are going to be happening in the not-so-distant future.

The current choices on the table: wiping Iran out, letting them rot economically, or making a deal.

My question is, if and when do I blow the entire nation up? They better behave.
