Trump says Iran is "100%" going to stop uranium enrichment
By Alejandra Jaramillo
President Donald Trump said Tuesday he is confident Iran will stop enriching uranium and abandon any effort to build a nuclear weapon, even as negotiations between Washington and Tehran remain at an impasse.
“100% they’re going to stop,” Trump said during an interview on WABC’s “Sid and Friends in the Morning” when asked whether he believed Iran could be prevented from enriching uranium and developing a bomb.
Trump said he has been directly engaged with Iranian officials during the talks.
“I deal with them,” Trump said. “And they said that we’re going to get the dust. I call it the nuclear dust because it’s appropriate. And we’re going to get it.”
The president also said the US does not need to move quickly toward a deal.
“We’re not going to rush anything, we have a blockade,” Trump said.
The remarks come a day after Trump said the ceasefire between the US and Iran is on “massive life support” following Tehran’s latest counterproposal, which he described as “simply unacceptable.”
