Iran’s nuclear program will be “gone for years”, Donald Trump has insisted after a leaked Pentagon report claimed it had only been set back for a few months.

Axar.az informs via Telegraph, speaking ahead of today’s Nato summit, the US president insisted that US bombers had “totally obliterated” Iran’s nuclear facilities and compared the strike to when America dropped a nuclear bomb on Hiroshima.

“That hit ended the war,” he said as he sat alongside Mark Rutte, the Nato secretary general, and his secretary of state, Marco Rubio.

Asked if the US would strike again if Iran rebuilt its program, he said: “Sure, but I’m not going to have to worry about that. It’s been gone for years.”
