President Donald Trump revealed Monday that the United States had attempted to arm Iranian anti-regime protesters, but that the weapons were diverted before reaching their intended recipients.
“We sent guns, a lot of guns, they were supposed to go to the people so they could fight back against these thugs,” Trump told reporters at a White House Easter event. “You know what happened? The people that they sent them to kept them.”
“They said, ‘What a beautiful gun. I think I’ll keep it,'” Trump claimed. “So I’m very upset with a certain group of people, and they’re going to pay a big price for that.”
Trump did not name the group in his Monday remarks, but on Sunday he had told a Fox News reporter that he believed Kurdish intermediaries were responsible. “We sent guns to the protesters, a lot of them… and I think the Kurds took the guns,” he said.
He continued his criticism of the Kurds later Monday at a White House press conference, saying he would prefer they stay out of the war entirely. “I’d rather have them stay away because I think they bring with them some problems and some difficulty,” he said. “They bring death… to themselves.”
