US President Donald Trump declined to comment on the possibility of dismantling Iran's nuclear facilities, but said he would not allow Tehran to develop nuclear weapons because that would lead to others acquiring them and then a catastrophe.
"I want them to be a great country. They have tremendous potential. The people are amazing. "The only thing I'm saying about Iran is that they can't have nuclear weapons," he said in an interview with Fox News.
According to the US president, if Iran gets a nuclear weapon, then others will get it and then there will be a "catastrophe".
