Trump says ‘I don’t care about Iran’s uranium’

by

Remarks by Donald Trump on Iran’s highly enriched uranium (HEU) stockpile have stirred fresh debate over the objectives and outcomes of the ongoing US-Israeli offensive. Downplaying concerns, Trump said the material—believed to be stored deep underground—could be tracked remotely, raising questions about whether neutralising Iran’s nuclear capability remains a central war aim.

Asked about the stockpile by Reuters news agency on Wednesday, Trump said: “That’s so far underground, I don’t care about that.”

“We’ll always be watching it by satellite,” he added.

Factcheck:

Trump stated that he “doesn’t care” about Iran’s uranium stockpile in the context of:

  • saying uranium levels are “not the issue”
  • arguing that Iran’s behavior, not enrichment, is the real problem
  • suggesting that uranium concerns are “overblown” compared to Iran’s regional actions

He did not say uranium is harmless or irrelevant — he said it’s not his focus.
