Trump rules out use of nuclear weapons against Iran

On Thursday, US President Donald Trump unequivocally declared that he would not use nuclear weapons against Iran, rejecting the idea in response to a journalist’s question in the Oval Office.

elchi reports that when asked if he was considering deploying nuclear weapons, Trump clearly answered “No.”

“Why would I ask such a stupid question? Why would I use nuclear weapons?” Trump said.

At the same time, he claims that the US has already destroyed Iran without a nuclear strike.

As the channel noted, Trump’s words two weeks ago that if Iran did not reach an agreement, an entire civilization would be destroyed tonight, prompted some of his critics to openly ask whether he was referring to a nuclear strike.
