Trump Expresses Confidence Iran Will Abandon Nuclear Program
WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump stated on Monday that he is firmly convinced Iran will cease uranium enrichment activities and discontinue any attempts to develop a nuclear weapon. The assertion came during an interview broadcast on the “Sid and Friends in the Morning” show on WABC. Responding to a question regarding Iran’s potential to enrich uranium and build a bomb, Trump expressed his certainty, stating, “100% they will stop.” He emphasized that this conviction stems from direct engagement with Iranian officials during ongoing discussions.
According to reports from Telegrafi, Trump indicated that Iranian officials have assured the U.S. of their commitment to halting nuclear activities, referring to this as a “nuclear plug.” He described this assurance as a critical step in preventing a potential crisis. Separately, Turkey issued a warning regarding the Strait of Hormuz, cautioning against its use as a “weapon.”
The comments reflect continued stalemate in negotiations between Washington and Tehran concerning the latter’s nuclear program and its enrichment of uranium.
