U.S. President Donald Trump was interviewed by NBC after announcing a ceasefire between Israel and Iran, saying "It's a great day for the world, in my opinion." According to him, "It's a wonderful day for America and the Middle East. I am very happy to have completed the job. Many people are dying, and it was only getting worse. It would have dragged the entire Middle East down." He added: "I think the ceasefire is unlimited. It's going to last forever. I don't believe Israel and Iran will ever shoot at each other again."
