President Donald Trump has claimed Iran was on the verge of obtaining a nuclear weapon, stating the country was "within one month, maybe two weeks" of having one. He asserted Iran would have used the weapon against Israel, the broader Middle East, and the United States, and that its goal was to "take over the Middle East." Trump added that US action stopped this plan and that regional allies like Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE were "shocked" when they were attacked.
