Donald Trump today took to national TV to unveil his immigration strategy and offer more substantive answers about what policies he would pursue as president.

Trump said on Meet The Press that he would end birthright citizenship and deport every single one of the country's estimated 11million illegal immigrants while rescinding any executive orders Barack Obama put in place to protect them.

In a wide-ranging interview with NBC's Chuck Todd, the presidential candidate explained his views on a number of topics including the Iran nuclear deal, Middle East policy, abortion and Hillary Clinton.

Trump said he would deport 'all' illegal immigrants and hammered Hillary Clinton during an interview on Meet The Press that aired Sunday

On immigration he said : 'We're going to keep the families together, but they have to go.'

Asked by host Chuck Todd about illegal immigrants who might have nowhere else to go, Trump said: 'We will work with them.

'They have to go ... we either have a country, or we don't have a country,' he added.

The businessman said that he would expedite the process back into the country for some immigrants who were deported.

According to recent research from Pew, Trump's proposal would mean deporting more than 11million people.

His remarks aired a day after his appearance at the Iowa State Fair. He offered children rides in his helicopter and was pictured eating a pork chop.

One young guest he invited aboard his chopper asked Trump if he was batman, to which the mogul replied: 'I am batman;.

In the candidate's first position paper, also released Sunday, Trump said that Mexico should pay for a wall to stop people from immigrating into the US.

The paper said that the American government should seize remittances sent back to Mexico and increase fees on visas for Mexican CEOs and diplomats to come to the country until the demand is met.

Trump said that he would also increase fees on border crossing cards and NAFTA work visas for Mexican citizens, as well as increasing fees at ports of entry from Mexico.

He advocated that the US should triple its number of Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers and that businesses should be made to hire from native unemployed workers before requesting visas for those from abroad.

He said that ICE officers should accompany local law enforcement that deals with gangs to look particularly for those illegally in the country who are part of criminal organizations.

NBC's Chuck Todd questioned Trump on several topics including his views on the US nuclear deal with Iran

The billionaire businessman and former reality TV star also says he would consider shutting down the federal government over funding for Planned Parenthood.

He says he isn't sure whether he has donated money to the organization in the past but adds that he would oppose providing federal funds if it continues providing abortion services.

A spokesman for the campaign later said that the billionaire had not donated to Planned Parenthood within the last 20 years.

Trump says he would ask nominees to the Supreme Court about their views on abortion and would take their views into consideration as he made a decision on whom to nominate.

He says he opposes abortion except in case of rape, incest and to save the life of the mother.

The tycoon also outlined a foreign policy in which the United States would put ground troops in the fight against Islamic State militants and demand money from Middle East countries supported by the US.

Calling the nuclear agreement forged between Iran and world powers including the US 'a bad deal,' Trump says that Iran will have nuclear weapons and take over parts of the world.

'And I think it's going to lead to nuclear holocaust,' he said.

Instead of tearing up the deal, he said he would 'police' it, and he called Secretary of State John Kerry 'incompetent' for negotiating the agreement.

He said that the deal would make Iran 'unbelievably powerful' and put Israel 'in big trouble'.

Trump criticized the US relationship with Saudi Arabia and said that the country should pay the US for its support. Above, he speaks next to his helicopter before attending the Iowa State Fair

On defeating Islamic State militants, Trump said the key is to take away their wealth by taking back the oil fields under their control in Iraq.

Told by 'Meet the Press' host Chuck Todd that such a move could require ground troops, Trump responded, 'That's OK.'

He said the Iraqis should be given 'something' from their oil fields but, in an apparent reference to Iraq War veterans, 'we should definitely take back money for our soldiers.'

'We've had soldiers that were so badly hurt and killed,' he said.

'I want their families to get something. Wounded warriors all over the place. They got nothing. And they can't even say we had a victory.

Trump in the past has accused Saudi Arabia of being the world's biggest funder of terrorism. On Sunday, he said the Gulf nation should be paying the US because it wouldn't exist without American support.

Part of the interview touched on Trump's changing view of abortion, which he now says is firmly pro-life. Above, a grab from a recently released video about Planned Parenthood

And, Trump said, the only reason the US supports Saudi Arabia is because it needs the oil.

'Now, we don't need the oil so much,' he said in an apparent reference to US oil and gas production. 'And if we let our people really go, we wouldn't need the oil at all. And we could let everybody else fight it out.'

Trump said Saudi Arabia is going to need help fighting against the kinds of militants who have targeted neighboring Yemen. He said he would assist the Saudis in that event, albeit reluctantly and for a price.

'We defend Saudi Arabia. We send our ships. We send our planes. Every time there's a little ruckus, we send those ships and those planes. We get nothing. Why? They're making a billion a day. We get nothing. And this is the problem with the world,' he said.

Ask who he talks to for military advice, Trump said he watches television news shows and cited former US ambassador to the UN John Bolton ('a tough cookie') and retired Army Colonel Jack Jacobs ('a good guy'), and incoming Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Joseph Dunford as two examples of people who impress him.

Trump compared former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to former general David Petraeus because of questions about her handling of classified information. Above, she speaks with former Senator Tom Harkin

On other issues, Trump said:

- It would be a 'miracle' if Clinton stayed in the race and compared her use of a private sever to the actions of David Petraeus, who was accused of sharing classified information with his biographer mistress. 'General Petraeus, his life has been destroyed,' said Trump. 'And he did 5% of what she did. So assuming she's able to run — which would be absolutely, to me, a miracle at this point — I will beat her.'

- Doesn't 'really care' whether Ukraine joins NATO. He said that Germany and European countries should take a larger role in the crisis there.

- Is 'fine' with affirmative action. 'We've lived with it for a long time. And I lived with it for a long time. And I've had great relationships with lots of people. So I'm fine with it.'

- Doesn't think a private company should be able to fire an employee for being gay.

- Wants to keep the minimum wage at current levels. 'I want to compete with the rest of the world. What I do want to do is bring in jobs so much so that people don't have to live on minimum wage.'
