Trump: Israel Would Never Use Nuclear Weapon Against Iran

Former US President Donald Trump stated that he does not believe Israel would use a nuclear weapon against Iran, responding to concerns raised by one of his advisors. The advisor, David Sachs, had warned about the risk of escalation in the war with Iran and the possibility of Israel considering the use of a nuclear weapon in the event of a serious threat. Trump denied that Sachs had shared this assessment with him. Israel maintains a policy of deliberate ambiguity regarding its nuclear arsenal, and it is estimated to possess approximately 90 nuclear warheads.
