U.S. President Donald Trump insisted on Wednesday that American strikes caused “very severe” damage to Iranian nuclear sites, despite leaked intelligence reports suggesting otherwise.
During a meeting ahead of the NATO summit in The Hague, President Trump said U.S. missile strikes on Iranian nuclear sites inflicted “obliteration-level” damage, even as he admitted the intelligence on the aftermath was inconclusive.
Trump dismissed a Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) assessment—which claimed Iran’s nuclear programme was only delayed by a few months—saying he believes the damage was far greater.
Flanked by Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, Trump claimed Iran's nuclear ambitions were set back by "decades" and suggested the country may never recover its programme.
Meanwhile, NATO leaders are expected to agree on a new defence spending goal of 5% of GDP, with Trump’s administration highlighting the move as a diplomatic achievement—even though some allies remain hesitant.
