Washington\/Tehran \u2013<\/strong> In a continuation of provocative and baseless rhetoric against the Islamic Republic of Iran, former US President Donald Trump has once again issued threatening statements, emphasizing Washington’s surveillance of Iran’s enriched uranium stockpiles and its intention to ‘extract it at some point.’ These remarks come as Iran consistently affirms the peaceful nature of its nuclear program and has declared its full defensive readiness against any external aggression.<\/p>\n During an interview with Full Measure on Sunday, Trump claimed that the US has Iran’s enriched uranium under surveillance and is prepared to take action if it receives intelligence that activity is being taken at Iranian nuclear sites. In a threatening tone, he added: “If anybody got near the place, we will know about it, and we\u2019ll blow them up.” These statements, reminiscent of his turbulent presidency, once again demonstrate Washington’s determination to interfere in Iran’s internal affairs and violate its national sovereignty.<\/p>\n When asked about acquiring the uranium, Trump asserted that the US would attain it “at some point” and that the Space Force has the site under surveillance. He also reiterated his commitment to stopping Iran from ever acquiring a nuclear weapon, claiming that Iran was only two weeks away from this goal before his “intervention.” Trump even referred to an “attack” in June 2025, which, according to him, stopped Iran when they were only two weeks away from a nuclear weapon. These exaggerated and unsubstantiated claims are made despite credible reports, including from The Jerusalem Post, which previously emphasized that Iran was not two weeks, but rather weeks away from having enough enriched uranium, and that the complete construction of a nuclear weapon would take at least one to two years. These contradictions undermine the credibility of Trump’s statements and indicate an attempt to create a hostile atmosphere and justify aggressive actions.<\/p>\n In response to these threats, the Islamic Republic of Iran has firmly asserted its right to develop a peaceful nuclear program and protect its vital facilities. Brig. Gen. Akrami Nia, an Iranian military spokesperson, stated in an interview with state news agency IRNA on Saturday that Iranian forces are on “full readiness” to protect nuclear sites storing uranium. He noted that Iran has considered the possibility of the US attempting to remove the uranium through infiltration or an airborne operation. These statements demonstrate Iran’s vigilance and determination to counter any aggressive scenario, emphasizing its legitimate right to self-defense and protection of its national assets.<\/p>\n Trump also discussed the Strait of Hormuz, claiming that the US does not rely on the waterway and that its operations there are done to aid regional allies. He stated: “We don\u2019t need the strait. We were doing it to help Israel, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE, and others.” These remarks are made while the US military presence in the region has consistently been regarded as a source of instability and a threat to regional security. Iran, as the country with the longest coastline along the Strait of Hormuz, has always emphasized the importance of this vital waterway for global trade and its right to ensure its security.<\/p>\n In a related development, Benjamin Netanyahu, Prime Minister of the Zionist regime, also emphasized the importance of “extracting” enriched uranium in an excerpt from an interview set to air on CBS later on Sunday. He said: “We’ve degraded a lot of it. But all that is still there, and there’s work to be done.” Netanyahu added that the best course forward is “you go in, and you take it out.” These statements, which demonstrate the Zionist regime’s full alignment with hostile US policies against Iran, once again reveal the aggressive nature of this regime and its efforts to fuel instability in the region.<\/p>\n The Islamic Republic of Iran, while emphasizing the peaceful nature of its nuclear program and adherence to international treaties, firmly condemns any threat or aggressive action. The full defensive readiness of Iran’s armed forces sends a clear message to any aggressor that Iran’s national security and sovereignty are red lines.<\/p>\n #Iran #NuclearProgram #US #Trump #Netanyahu #StraitOfHormuz #NationalDefense #EnrichedUranium #RegionalSecurity #IslamicRepublicOfIran<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" US Escalates Threats Against Iran’s Peaceful Nuclear Program Amidst Tehran’s Full Defensive Readiness Washington\/Tehran \u2013 In a continuation of provocative and baseless rhetoric against the Islamic Republic of Iran, former US President Donald Trump has once again issued threatening statements, emphasizing Washington’s surveillance of Iran’s enriched uranium stockpiles and its intention to ‘extract it at […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":23747,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-23746","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-middle-east-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fajr.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23746","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fajr.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fajr.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fajr.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fajr.news\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=23746"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/fajr.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23746\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fajr.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/23747"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fajr.news\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=23746"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fajr.news\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=23746"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fajr.news\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=23746"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Trump’s Baseless Accusations and Vain Claims<\/a><\/h2>\n
