Washington, DC: United States President Donald Trump on Sunday (local time) issued a fresh warning, saying the US military is maintaining rigorous surveillance over Iran’s enriched uranium stockpiles, and any attempt to access or enter these establishments will result in strong action. During an interview with independent journalist Sharyl Attkisson, he said that the US forces can ‘blow up’ these establishments if the security of the uranium stockpiles is compromised.

What Did Donald Trump Say?
“We’ll get that at some point… We have it surveilled. I did a thing called Space Force, and they are watching that… If anybody got near the place, we will know about it, and we’ll blow them up,” Trump stated during the interview.
Elaborating on the precision of American intelligence, Trump claimed that the Space Force could provide granular details on any individual attempting to infiltrate the facilities. “If somebody walked in, they (Space Force) can tell you his name, address, his badge number,” he said.
Iran: A ‘Militarily Defeated’ Nation
The US President characterised Iran as a nation already militarily defeated. He argued that the country’s defensive and offensive capabilities have been systematically dismantled.
“They have no navy, no air force, they have no anti-aircraft weaponry and no leaders,” Trump remarked, adding that while Tehran continues to vacillate over potential diplomatic resolutions, its infrastructure is in ruins. He further claimed that were the US to withdraw today, it would take the Islamic Republic “20 years to rebuild.”
When questioned on whether American combat operations in the region have reached a conclusion, the President indicated that Washington is not done yet. Estimating that the US military has probably destroyed 70 per cent of its intended targets, he suggested that a further push may be on the horizon.
“We could go in for two more weeks,” Trump said, describing any future strikes as “final touches.” He maintained that even without further bombardment, the damage already inflicted has set Iran back by two decades.
Iran Cannot Be Allowed To Acquire Nuclear Weapons
Reiterating his long-standing opposition to Tehran’s nuclear ambitions, the US President said the international community cannot allow a ‘crazy’ regime to possess nuclear weapons.
Donald Trump defended his decision to withdraw from 2015 Iran nuclear deal, saying that the deal prevented the Middle East country from using nuclear weapons against Israel and the broader Middle East.
