Israel-Iranian War: Hours after we pounded three of the Iranian nuclear places, Minister of Defense Pete HegSeth now said that America is not looking for war with Iran.
When addressing the printing, HegSeth said that the strikes performed under the mission called “Midnight Hammer” were not “about changing the regime”.
Meanwhile, JD Vance said in a television interview that even though he would not discuss “sensitive intelligence about what we saw on Earth,” he felt “very convinced that we had significantly delayed their development of nuclear weapons”.
Air gene. Dan Caine, chairman of the common chiefs of staff, said the goal of the operation – the destruction of nuclear places in Ford, Natanz and Isfahan was achieved.
“He really pushed his program on
When JD is further pressed, NBC “Meet the Press” said “I think we really moved our program back for a very long time. I think it will be many years before the Iranians will be able to develop a nuclear weapon.”
The Vice President argued that the US “with Iran” aggressively “raised to try to find a peace settlement and that Trump decided not” in good faith “after the assessment of the Iranians.
“Actually, I think it provides an opportunity to reset this relationship, reset these negotiations and make us a place where Iran can decide not to threaten your neighbors, not for the United States, and if they are willing to do it, the United States is ears,” Vance said.
Vance said it would make sense for Iran to come to the negotiating table and gave up his nuclear weapons program for a long time. “If they are willing to do it, they will find a helpful partner in the United States,” he said, describing a possible chance of “resetting” for Tehran.
While US officials urged caution and stressed that Washington had only aimed at nuclear places, Iran criticized the acts as a violation of its sovereignty and international law.
“Washington fully responsible”
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said on Sunday that Washington is “fully responsible” for any deeds that Tehran can do in response.
“They crossed a very large red line by attacking nuclear facilities,” he said at a press conference in Turkey. “I don’t know how much space is left for diplomacy.”
Russia and China condemned the US attack. Araghchi said he was traveling to Moscow later to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin. The Turkish statement of the Foreign Ministry warned of the risk that the conflict was spreading to the Middle East to the “global level”.
Briefing of the Pentagon did not provide any new details of Iranian nuclear abilities. HegSeth said the timeline was the result of President Donald Trump’s schedule for interviews with Iran about his nuclear ambitions.
The strikes occurred on Saturday between 18:40 and 19:05 in Washington or on Sunday in Iran about 2:10.
