Trump says he will not use nuclear weapons against Iran

Golden Finance reports that on April 24th, according to CCTV International News, on the afternoon of April 23rd local time, U.S. President Trump told the media at an event in the White House that he could reach an agreement with Iran now, but he wants the agreement to be “permanent,” so that Iran never has the chance to acquire nuclear weapons. Therefore, he is not in a hurry. Trump said, “There is enough time,” “no pressure at all,” “the real pressure is on Iran,” and under the U.S. naval blockade, “it is impossible to restore oil transportation.” And if Iran does not want to reach an agreement, he will “use military means to complete the remaining tasks.”
When asked whether he would consider using nuclear weapons against Iran, Trump replied “no,” and said that even without launching a nuclear strike, the U.S. has “completely destroyed” Iran. When reporters asked why the fight was not resolved within the 4 to 6 weeks initially mentioned, Trump repeatedly mentioned that the U.S. fought in Vietnam for 18 years, and also claimed that the U.S. had already “militarily taken Iran” within 6 weeks, and now it is just a matter of “both sides taking a break.”(Dongxin News Agency)
