U.S. President Donald Trump stated on the 23rd (local time) that he has no intention of using nuclear weapons. This is interpreted as dismissing the possibility of a nuclear strike against Iran.


At a 'healthcare cost reduction' event held at the White House that day, President Trump was asked whether he was willing to use nuclear weapons against Iran. He replied, "No."



He added, "We have already completely devastated them by conventional means alone, so why would we use nuclear weapons? I will not use nuclear weapons. Nuclear weapons should never be used by anyone." He also remarked to the reporter who posed the question, "Why are you asking such a stupid question?"
