"We Would Know": Trump Rejects Reports of Aid to Iran
US President Donald Trump has dismissed claims that Russia and China are aiding Iran in the war, sharply attacking those spreading the allegations. Trump argued that if any aid exists, it is at a low level, and emphasized that the US would know about it. His remarks come amid international media reports of Russian and Chinese assistance to Tehran, including missile supplies and intelligence information.
US President Donald Trump on Tuesday rejected claims that Russia and China are providing significant aid to Iran amid the conflict in the Middle East. Trump sharply attacked those spreading the allegations, calling them "the morons and lunatics of the radical left," and argued that if any aid exists, it is at a very low level. He emphasized that Russia and China have too much to lose from such involvement, and that the United States would quickly discover it. His remarks come amid a series of international media reports, including a Bloomberg report on Russian missile supplies to Iran and a CNN report on Russian satellites passing over a US base in Saudi Arabia. Reports have also emerged of possible Chinese assistance, including the transfer of satellite imagery and radar systems. However, Trump casts doubt on the very existence of significant aid from the two powers. The article quotes only Trump, with no additional sources or independent verification of the claims.
