Trump Administration to Meet With Iran Following Successful U.S. Strike

President Donald Trump said he would soon meet with Iran following the United States’ successful strike on the nation’s nuclear enrichment facilities.

Because Iran’s nuclear capacity is destroyed, Trump said he doesn’t feel a need to get Iran to sign an agreement.

“We’re going to talk to them next week with Iran,” Trump said. “We may sign an agreement. I don’t think it’s that necessary. They had a war, they fought, now they’re going back to their world. I don’t care if I have an agreement or not. The only thing we’d be asking for is what we were asking for before, about we want no nuclear, but we destroyed the nuclear.”

“In other words, it’s destroyed,” Trump continued. “I said Iran will not have nuclear. Well, we blew it up. It’s blown up to kingdom come. And so, I don’t feel very strongly about it. If we got a document, wouldn’t be bad. We’re going to meet with him. Actually, we’re going to meet with them.”

“Last weekend, the United States successfully carried out a massive precision strike on Iran’s nuclear enrichment facilities, and it was very, very successful,” Trump said from the NATO summit. “It was called obliteration, not another military on earth could have done it.”

Trump said he believes the 12-day war will not reignite.

“It was a 12-day war, and we think it’s over,” Trump said. “I don’t think they’re going to be going back at each other. I don’t think so. Not only have we dealt decisively with the critical threat of Iran’s nuclear program, which was what I wanted, I said Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon. I’ve said that for 15 years, long before I decided to do the political thing. But we’ve also reasserted the credibility of American deterrence, which is like no other.”

Trump slammed a CNN report claiming that the U.S. failed to obliterate Iran’s nuclear facilities. An initial document on the U.S. strike said damage to Iranian nuclear capacity could be limited or very severe. After that, the U.S. collected additional intelligence and learned the Fordo site was obliterated, Trump said.

“There’s no way you can even get down there,” Trump said of Iran’s underground uranium enrichment facility. “The whole thing is collapsed in a disaster. And I think all of the nuclear stuff is down there because it’s very hard to remove. And we did it very quickly.”

The CNN report relied on a leaked part of an assessments based on intel from just a day after the strike, a White House official told The Daily Signal.

The assessment acknowledged it was a low-confidence level report with several gaps in information.

Additionally, the CNN reporter who wrote the story also wrote the initial story painting the Hunter Biden laptop as “Russian Disinformation.”
