President Donald Trump referred to the US-Israeli conflict with Iran during the state dinner at the White House yesterday.
The dispute has become a point of strain between the United States and the United Kingdom.
“We’re engaged in some work in the Middle East at the moment,” Trump stated, “and it’s going quite well.”
He subsequently emphasized that the US will never permit Iran to acquire a nuclear weapon and asserted that Charles is in agreement.
“We have successfully defeated that specific adversary, and we will never allow that adversary — Charles agrees with me even more strongly — to possess a nuclear weapon.”
