US Vice President Vance Affirms Iran Will Not Obtain Nuclear Weapon
(MENAFN) US Vice President JD Vance said Wednesday that Iran will not be permitted to acquire a nuclear weapon, stressing that diplomacy remains the preferred approach of the Donald Trump administration, while noting that other options remain available.
In an interview, Vance stated that Trump has been “as crystal clear as he could be, Iran can't have a nuclear weapon.”
“That would be the ultimate military objective, if that's the route that he chose. That is, of course, what we're trying to accomplish, as the president said, through the preferred route of diplomacy, but it's very simple, we have to get to a position where Iran, the largest state sponsor of terrorism in the world, cannot threaten the world with nuclear terrorism,” Vance added.
He highlighted that most Americans agree Iran should not develop nuclear weapons, framing the issue as a critical matter of both national and global security.
Vance also emphasized that while diplomatic negotiations continue, Trump has shown readiness to employ alternative measures if required. “Trump is going to try to accomplish it diplomatically,” he said, adding that the president “has a number of other tools at his disposal to ensure this doesn't happen.”
Delegations from Iran and the US are scheduled to hold a third round of indirect nuclear talks in Geneva, Switzerland on Thursday, under Omani mediation.
