[Trump Says He Wants to Obtain Iran's Uranium Mainly for 'PR']
According to a report by Jinse Finance, on May 15, U.S. President Donald Trump stated that the goal of obtaining highly enriched uranium from Iran is 'more for public relations work than for any other purpose,' while reiterating his determination to remove these nuclear materials.
In an interview aired Thursday night in the U.S., Trump mentioned that the task of locating uranium believed to be buried under the rubble of destroyed nuclear facilities might be deemed unnecessary, as the U.S. has been conducting round-the-clock surveillance. 'We have nine cameras at those three locations, monitoring 24 hours a day without interruption,' Trump said. 'We know exactly what’s happening there. No one can even get close.'
However, Trump expressed that he ultimately still hopes to transport these materials out of Iran. 'To be honest, if I actually got it, I’d feel better,' Trump said. 'But I think this is more for public relations than for any other purpose.' (Dongxin News Agency)
