US President Donald Trump ruled out using nuclear weapons against Iran, saying the United States had no need to resort to them.
In an interview with “Newsmax” on Thursday, Trump was asked about reports that his administration was considering using a bomb against Iran, potentially after the US midterm elections. He stressed that the “mother of all bombs” is a conventional weapon.
“The mother of all bombs is not nuclear,” Trump said, describing it as “just an extremely large bomb”. He repeated that the weapon was not nuclear.
“No, I wouldn’t use nuclear. We don’t have to,” he said when asked whether he would use nuclear weapons.
Asked whether he trusted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Trump replied: “I don’t trust anybody, honestly.” He added: “In the world of politics, I don’t trust anybody.”
