U.S. President Donald Trump stated that the United States could halt its military operations against Iran at any time, claiming that Iran’s ability to develop nuclear weapons had been eliminated.
Speaking to his supporters in Kansas, Trump said, “Iran
cannot have nuclear weapons, and it will not be allowed to have them. Someone
said you could withdraw now, and that’s true. We can withdraw now; they will
not have a nuclear weapon.” He argued that Washington was no longer obligated
to continue its military operations.
The U.S. president also referred to strikes carried out by
American B-2 stealth strategic bombers against Iranian nuclear facilities,
claiming that the operation had significantly limited Tehran’s ability to
acquire nuclear weapons.
