US President Donald Trump estimated in a radio interview that the crisis with Iran will end very soon, and clarified that Tehran will not be able to obtain nuclear weapons. His remarks come amid sharp statements from other senior American officials: US Ambassador to the UN Mike Waltz stated in the Security Council that the US and its partners will never allow Iran to obtain nuclear weapons, and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent revealed that economic pressure is severely harming the regime and making it difficult to finance terrorist organizations. Senator Ted Cruz called for arming Iranian protesters to overthrow the regime. Meanwhile, International Atomic Energy Agency head Rafael Grossi reported that no signs of restoration were identified at the damaged nuclear sites, but noted that Iran possesses 440.9 kg of uranium enriched to 60% – a level close to the weapons threshold.
