Trump to Israel: Hit Iran’s Nuclear Sites First
Former US President and Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump stated that Israel should target Iran’s nuclear facilities in response to Tehran’s recent missile barrage. Speaking at a campaign event in North Carolina, Trump said, “Hit the nuclear first and worry about the rest later.”
Trump’s remarks came in reaction to current US President Joe Biden’s stance, who earlier refused to back an Israeli attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities]. During Trump’s presidency in 2018, the United States withdrew from a nuclear agreement with Iran that imposed significant restrictions on Iran’s nuclear program in exchange for sanctions relief. Since then, Iran has reportedly resumed its nuclear activities.
Criticizing Biden’s position, Trump emphasized the need to prioritize nuclear threats in response to Iran’s provocations. This comes after Biden recently stated that an “all-out war” in the Middle East was unlikely and should be avoided.
Trump’s comments have reignited the debate on how to address Iran’s nuclear ambitions and the broader tensions in the Middle East. As the situation continues to evolve, the international community watches closely for potential shifts in US policy and Israeli actions.
