President Donald Trump called the U.S. attacks on three nuclear sites in Iran a “tremendous success” and warned during a roughly three-minute White House address that if Iran’s government does not “make peace,” “future attacks will be far greater and a lot easier.”
“There will be either peace or there will be tragedy for Iran, far greater than we have witnessed over the last eight days,” the president said, flanked by Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. “Remember, there are many targets left.”
It’s a significant statement from the president, who rose to power in part through his heavy criticism of the Iraq war after his initial support for the U.S. invasion.
