The U.S. Secretary of Defense: My main duty is to ensure America’s full readiness if no agreement is reached with Iran
Pete Hegseth, the U.S. Secretary of Defense, made statements regarding the possibility of reaching an agreement with Iran
Certainly, we hope an agreement is possible. President Trump has stated that Iran will not acquire nuclear weapons and is also committed to the peace process and negotiations
It is not my duty to comment on negotiations; my duty is to be prepared in case no agreement is reached
We know that Steve Witkoff and his team are committed to peace, and we hope this path leads to a peaceful outcome
