4:17Now PlayingAli Vaez, Iran Project Director of the Crisis Group's Iran Project, joins to discuss the conflicting views about the whether the US destroyed Iran's nuclear capabilities and whether there is any room for diplomacy in the Israel-Iran conflict.
President Donald Trump said the US would hold a meeting with Iran next week, but cast doubt on the need for a diplomatic agreement following the American bombing of its three main nuclear sites.
“We’re going to talk to them next week with Iran, we may sign an agreement. I don’t know, to me, I don’t think it’s necessary,” Trump said Wednesday during a press conference during the NATO summit at The Hague.
The president did not say at what level the talks would take place.
Trump reiterated that the US bombing of Natanz, Isfahan and Fordow nuclear facilites “obliterated” them, again disputing an American intelligence assessment that said the strikes only set back Tehran’s nuclear program by a matter of months. And he said the bombings effectively meant the conflict was “over.”
