Was this legal?

At a press conference during the NATO summit on June 25, the president of the United States said this regarding the Iranian attack on a U.S. military base in Qatar on June 23: “And uh, they were very nice. They gave us warning. They said we’re going to shoot them. Is 1:00, OK? I said it’s fine. And everybody was emptied off the base so they couldn’t get hurt except for the gunners. They call them the gunners. And uh, out of 14 high end missiles that were shot at the base in Qatar, all 14, as you know, were shot down by our equipment.”

The president of the United States gave a foreign power permission to bomb a U.S. military base.
