United States President Donald Trump on Wednesday said Iran's nuclear programme has been "set back decades", a day after he claimed to have brokered a truce between the Shiite state and Israel.
"They're not going to be building bombs for a long time," said Trump, insisting that US strikes caused 'total obliteration' at Iran nuclear sites.
He also said that the ceasefire between the Jewish nation and the Khamenei-led state was "going very well".
Drawing a parallel between World War II and June 22 US strikes against Iran, Trump said: "That end ended the war. I don't want to use an example of Hiroshima. I don't want to use an example of Nagasaki. But that was essentially the same thing. That ended that war."
Notably, in the Pacific, after intense battles and Japan’s refusal to yield, the US dropped atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Japan surrendered shortly after, bringing the war to an end in 1945.
Speaking on the possibility Iran resuming the enrichment of uranium beyond permitted levels, Trump said: "I think they've had it, they just went through hell... the last thing they want to do is enrich."
Trump also claimed "great progress" has been made in Gaza, suggesting the US strikes on Iran could have a positive impact on West Asia.
