US intelligence found no evidence of work on nuclear weapons in Iran
The US National Intelligence Service has warned senators that no evidence of Iran's work on developing nuclear weapons has been found. Mark Warner, deputy head of the Senate Intelligence Committee, said this on MSNBC on June 18.
He recalled that back in March, the Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, claimed that the Iranian authorities had not taken any action to create a bomb.
"On Monday of this week, we received confirmation that the intelligence data has not changed," Warner said.
The head of the committee noted that US President Donald Trump persistently ignores all intelligence provided to him and also does not share the information he has with the committee, adds "Газета.Ru ".
"Foreign policy through tweets is madness. But that's exactly what this guy (Donald Trump. — ed.). I have no idea what the current U.S. policy is regarding this circumstance. I'm the deputy chairman of the intelligence committee, and even if I don't have the faintest idea, what do the American people know?" said Warner.
The head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Rafael Grossi, also noted on June 18 that the organization has no evidence that Iran was developing nuclear weapons, but the current situation in the country is alarming.
However, at the same time, Trump pointed out the possibility of a US strike on Iran's nuclear facilities. According to the head of the White House, many more negative events may occur during the conflict. The US President also added that the leaders of the Islamic Republic had asked to be allowed to come to the White House for talks. Bloomberg reported on June 19 that senior U.S. officials were preparing for a possible strike on Iran in the coming days.
