President Trump said Wednesday that US officials will meet with their Iranian counterparts next week — following Saturday’s unprecedented US airstrikes that he said buried the nation’s enriched uranium under “30 stories” of rubble.
Trump did not say who would represent the US at that meeting after he helped broker a cease-fire between Iran and Israel Monday, ending what he has dubbed the “12-Day War.”

“We’re going to talk to them next week, with Iran. We may sign an agreement. I don’t know,” Trump said at a press conference following the annual NATO summit at The Hague.
“I could get a statement that they’re not going to go nuclear. We’re probably going to ask for that, but they’re not going to be doing it anyway.”

Trump then reiterated: “We may sign an agreement, [but] I don’t care if I have an agreement or not.”
The president also said it’s his opinion that nearly 900 pounds of enriched uranium, the whereabouts of which are currently unknown, remain underneath 300 feet of rubble at the Fordow enrichment site, which was hit with 14 30,000-pound “bunker buster” bombs.

“We think everything nuclear is down there, they didn’t take it out,” he said.
Trump, 79, also used the press conference to rip the “real scum” in the press whom he accused of downplaying the impact of his air raids on Iran, which he likened Wednesday to the US dropping atomic weapons on Japan to end World War II in 1945.

“It was so bad that they ended the war,” he said of the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Trump also argued a leaked Defense Intelligence Agency assessment that the strikes may not have set back Iran’s nuclear program more than a few months was merely “a guess” because “they didn’t see it.”
