US President Donald Trump said on Friday that he would consider bombarding Iran again if Tehran enriches uranium to a level that worries the United States, as well as to support any Iranian nuclear sites, Reuters reports.
“Sure, without a doubt, absolute,” Trump said when he was asked about the possibility of a new American bombing on Iranian nuclear sites if he was considered necessary at a given time.
In the Press Conference at the White House, the US president said he intends to respond to the remarks made by the Supreme leader of Iran, Ayatollah Ali Khamena, who said that the Islamic Republic “pushed America over the face” by the attack released against an important US in Qatar after the American bombardment of the weekend.
The American leader also mentioned that he wants the inspectors of the International Atomic Energy Agency (AIEA) or of another respected institution to be able to inspect the bombed Iranian nuclear sites.
Trump believes that they were “destroyed” and rejected any suggestion that the damage to the sites would not have been as deep as he said.
The US president promised to support AIEA, the UN nuclear supervisory body, to check the bombed sites.
The head of the agency, Rafael Grossi, said on Wednesday that his main priority is to resume AIEA inspections, because no one was carried out after the launch of Israeli bombings on June 13.
However, the Iranian Parliament on Wednesday approved measures to suspend these inspections. The Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi indicated on Friday that Tehran could reject any request from the head of the agency to visit Iranian nuclear sites.
Donald Trump also said he does not believe that Iran wants to continue trying to obtain a nuclear weapon after American and Israeli bombings.
He claims that Iran still wants to participate in discussions about the way to follow. The White House said on Thursday that no meeting between the US and Tehran representatives has been scheduled.
Four familiar sources with the subject told CNN that the Trump administration has discussed the possibility of helping Iran to access up to $ 30 billion to build a nuclear civil energy production program, to relax sanctions and to release billions from restricted Iranian funds-all of which are part of the Theran.
