Trump Says Iran Cannot Be Allowed to Obtain a Nuclear Weapon
President Trump has reiterated his hardline position on Iran and its nuclear program.
“Iran is the number one leading state sponsor of terror,” Trump said, adding that the country “cannot have a nuclear weapon.”
The remarks reinforce Washington’s continued focus on preventing Iran from developing nuclear weapons capability.
Any escalation in tensions between the U.S. and Iran could quickly become relevant for global markets, particularly oil, energy infrastructure and broader geopolitical risk sentiment.
