He also said Iran “appears to be standing down” after launching the missiles, and he announced new sanctions against the country.
Trump also announced new sanctions on the Iranian regime, which he said will remain “until Iran changes its behavior,” and called on U.S. allies to follow his lead and abandon the JCPOA, also known as the Iran nuclear deal.
