Trump Says Preventing a Nuclear-Armed Iran Outweighs Global Economic Risks
US President Donald Trump told reporters in the Oval Office that a nuclear-armed Iran poses a far greater danger than any economic shock from renewed military action. He insisted that the threat of a nuclear weapon “supersedes” concerns about triggering a global recession. Trump rejected suggestions that strikes on Iran would collapse the world economy under his leadership. The president warned that if Tehran fails to honor its commitments, military options remain on the table. He also noted that economic worries drove his recent ceasefire memorandum, but will not stop him from enforcing U.S. demands. Trump added he is monitoring Israeli troop deployments in southern Lebanon following remarks by Prime Minister Netanyahu.
