US President Donald Trump warned that Iran’s nuclear facility in the mountains near Natanz could face a military strike. The Trump Iran threat came during a meeting with Lebanese President Joseph Aoun at the White House. Trump also claimed Iran would not be able to stop such an attack if it took place.

Speaking to reporters, Trump said a strike on the Natanz nuclear site could happen soon. He claimed Iran would be unable to prevent the attack. However, he did not provide further details about the timing or any military plans.

Trump also defended his decision to withdraw from the nuclear agreement reached between former President Barack Obama and Iran. He argued that if the deal had remained in place, Iran could have developed nuclear weapons. He added that such a development would have threatened Israel and other countries in the Middle East.

The US president said American B-2 bombers had previously targeted Iranian nuclear sites. According to Trump, those operations prevented Iran from developing nuclear weapons. He also claimed the strikes significantly reduced Iran’s military capabilities.

Trump acknowledged that Iran had caused some damage in Jordan. However, he suggested the outcome could have been different if what he described as “other operators” had acted differently. He did not explain who he meant by that term.

The president also claimed that Iran was eager to hold talks with the United States because of the damage it had suffered. However, he said Washington had no interest in meeting Iranian officials at this time.

When asked about US politics, Trump said Iran might be using threats related to the Strait of Hormuz to influence the upcoming congressional elections. He added that any such effort would not change his decisions or policies.

The Trump Iran threat has added to concerns about rising tensions between Washington and Tehran. Trump maintained that his administration would continue to take what it believes are the right steps, regardless of political or regional pressure.
