Trump assesses likelihood of nuclear strike against Iran

The United States does not see the need to use nuclear weapons against Iran, U.S. President Donald Trump told Politico in a phone interview.

"I don't need it. We've knocked them out already 90%. So, I don't need that," Donald Trump said.

Earlier, the U.S. leader said that he is satisfied with the current state of affairs on the Iran issue, adding that Washington does not intend to carry out any strikes in the near future.
