Trump Opposes US Intervention In Iran’s Government, Focuses On Preventing Nuclear Weapons

President Donald Trump has reaffirmed his opposition to U.S. intervention in Iran’s internal politics, particularly when it comes to regime change efforts. In a conversation with podcaster Patrick Bet-David, Trump was asked if the U.S. should support restoring the monarchy of the late Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi. Trump firmly rejected the idea, saying, “We can’t get totally involved in all that,” signaling his belief that America should not become embroiled in Iran’s political shifts.

Despite avoiding the idea of regime change, Trump remains steadfast in his position that Iran must not be allowed to develop nuclear weapons. He pointed to the sanctions his administration imposed on Iran, which reduced the country’s oil exports and crippled its economy. “The only thing is, they can’t have a nuclear weapon,” Trump said, highlighting the importance of continuing efforts to curb Iran’s nuclear ambitions.

In a separate interview with Al Arabiya, Trump discussed the current state of Iran, expressing concern that the country is in “danger.” He attributed this to Iran’s involvement with regional terrorist groups like Hezbollah, which has become more prominent as tensions between Israel and Hamas continue to rise. Trump reiterated that preventing Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons would have been a top priority under his leadership.

Trump also took the opportunity to praise the Iranian people, describing them as “smart” and “great businesspeople,” but warned that Iran’s current trajectory is putting it in a vulnerable position. As the Middle East faces growing instability, Trump emphasized the importance of limiting Iran’s influence and nuclear capabilities while expressing concern for the country’s future.
