Reporter: The president said we might blow up and completely obliterate all of their generating electric plants, oil wells, Kharg island, and possibly all desalination plants. Under international law, striking infrastructure is generally prohibited. Why is the president advocating potentially a war crime and how do you square that with the US aying it does not target civilians?
Leavitt: Their best move is to make a deal or else the united States armed forces has capabilities beyond their wildest imagination
Reporter: Including potential war crimes?
Leavitt: With respect to achieving the full objectives, the president is going to move forward…
Reporter: Which of those objectives would destroying a desalination plant most help?

European Alternatives: Producers like MBDA (producing Aster missiles) and Diehl (IRIS-T) are increasing production to fill gaps for European nations
Korean Competition: South Korea is emerging as a major competitor with its Cheongung-II system, offering a more affordable and rapidly available alternative to American systems
The only quick fix is to invest into Ukraine production lines.

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, on behalf of Donald Trump, expressed regret that the Saudi authorities signed defense agreements with Ukraine without consulting the United States, which had been Saudi Arabia’s main ally.
In response, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman noted that the U.S. had failed to fully protect the Kingdom from Iranian strikes, and therefore Saudi Arabia made a decision that could quickly strengthen its defense capabilities. The Crown Prince also stated that his country will continue to be guided by its own national interests when making decisions regarding its defense.
This was a slap in the face to Trump from Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman in response to Trump’s crude and scandalous public statement that “…now let the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia kiss my ass and be polite to me from now on.”
Thus, Trump’s reckless and irresponsible remarks have effectively put U.S.–Saudi relations on pause.
The Saudi Crown Prince proved to be more diplomatic than the American president and, notably, did not respond to Rubio by saying that Trump should “kiss my ass” and behave politely toward him in the future
