Trump rejects US intelligence that Iran is not building nuclear weapon

US President Donald Trump has dismissed a US intelligence assessment that Iran is not building a nuclear weapon.

National Intelligence Director Tulsi Gabbard told Congress in March that US intelligence “continues to assess that Iran is not building a nuclear weapon” and that the country’s supreme leader “has not authorised the nuclear weapons program that he suspended in 2003”.

However, Trump dismissed the findings, telling reporters aboard an overnight flight back to Washington from the G7 summit: “I don’t care what she said. I think they were very close to having one”.
