Trump: Blockade makes Iran 'very poor', US pilot unharmed after plane crash

During an interview with The Wall Street Journal on Tuesday, Trump stated that the blockade has left Iran "very poor" and said he will continue to maintain the blockade depending on the situation. He downplayed the US helicopter crash incident, stating that it was "not a big deal" and that the pilots were safe and sound. A spokesperson for the US Central Command stated that the crew members were rescued after staying in the water for about two hours after falling into the water at night. A senior official described the crew's successful escape as a 'miraculous escape'.
