The President of the United States was succinct.
U.S. aircraft could repeat strikes on Iranian complexes where uranium enrichment was underway if Tehran returns to developing a nuclear program, Reuters reported, citing a statement by U.S. President Donald Trump.
The Trump-brokered cease-fire agreement between Iran and Israel appeared to remain in place on Wednesday, and the U.S. president's special envoy to the Middle East, Steve Whitkoff, called talks with Tehran on a final settlement of the conflict promising.
"We're already in dialog, not only directly but through mediators, and those conversations are promising," Whitkoff said. - I am confident we will reach a comprehensive peace agreement."
Each side on Tuesday declared victory in the 12-day air war.
According to Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian, cited by Iranian media, Tehran has won a great victory. Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu announced that the nuclear threat has been successfully eliminated. "We have eliminated two immediate threats to our existence: the threat of nuclear annihilation of Israel and the threat of a 20,000 ballistic missile strike," Netanyahu said, adding that he would not allow the IRI to resume its weapons program.
U.S. intelligence agencies, however, believe that U.S. airstrikes on sites in Iran have only delayed the development of a nuclear arsenal by a few months. The source said the Islamic Republic's existing stockpile of enriched uranium has not been destroyed, and work at underground facilities could resume in a month or two.
A Pentagon intelligence report said bombs dropped by U.S. aircraft created debris at the entrance to two nuclear complexes but did not destroy infrastructure underground, a source familiar with the document said. The Washington Post reported that some centrifuges remained intact.
"They don't know anything for sure," Trump said Wednesday of the preliminary intelligence findings.
He said Tehran's nuclear program has been set back decades.
When asked if the U.S. would strike again if nuclear enrichment operations were restored, President Trump said, "Absolutely."
