01 · THE DISPATCH

U.S. President Donald Trump reiterated Monday that Iran must not be allowed to possess nuclear weapons, in a statement reported by N12. The remark is the latest in a series of Trump's public comments on the Iranian nuclear issue, which The Zioneer has been covering extensively. On July 3, Trump told CNN that "under no circumstances" must Iran be allowed nuclear weapons, and he has repeatedly asserted on social media and in interviews that the emerging deal with Tehran includes a commitment not to pursue nuclear arms. The statement continues the administration's firm stance while diplomatic and military pressure on Iran remains high.
