Trump says his 'preference' is to solve the Iran nuclear issue through diplomacy
US President Donald Trump said Tuesday that while he prefers a diplomatic solution with Iran, he will not allow Tehran to acquire a nuclear weapon under any circumstances.
Speaking during his 2026 State of the Union address before a joint session of Congress, Trump underscored that negotiations are ongoing. "We are in negotiations with them. They want to make a deal, but we haven't heard those secret words: 'We will never have a nuclear weapon.'”
