Trump: We will take Iran’s uranium reserves and probably destroy them
Donald Trump, the President of the United States, said that the U.S. will not allow Iran to keep its enriched uranium reserves and will probably destroy them after obtaining these materials.
Speaking to reporters at the White House, he said, ‘We will get it. We are not going to allow them to have it.’
Trump reiterated that the U.S. will either ensure Iran does not acquire nuclear weapons or will take very severe action.
These remarks were made hours after a Reuters report claimed, citing two Iranian sources, that Mojtaba Khamenei had ordered that the enriched uranium reserves should not be removed from Iran.
Some media outlets, including Fox News and Al Jazeera, later questioned the credibility of this report, and Iran has not yet issued an official response.
Trump also said the U.S. opposes the possible plan to impose tolls on ships in the Strait of Hormuz and claimed that Washington has full control over this waterway.
