Dmitry Medvedev, the former Russian president and current deputy chairman of Russia&#8217;s Security Council, stated that &#8220;a number of countries are prepared to directly supply Iran with their own nuclear warheads,&#8221; as reported by Newsweek. Trump questioned Medvedev&#8217;s comments on social media, asking if he truly made such a statement and emphasizing that the term &#8220;nuclear&#8221; should not be used lightly. He also highlighted America&#8217;s military strength, particularly praising the capabilities of U.S. nuclear submarines after they successfully launched Tomahawk missiles. Medvedev&#8217;s comments came amid claims about escalating tensions between Israel and Iran following missile attacks attributed to Iran after U.S. strikes affected Iranian nuclear sites; however, no injuries were reported from those attacks according to The Times of Israel. Experts noted that supplying a nuclear weapon to Iran is far more complex than suggested by Medvedev, emphasizing the technical challenges involved in transferring such weapons without establishing an extensive nuclear program within Iran itself<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2450911,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Donald-Trump-16.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[36493,56969,36830,3733,3634],"class_list":["post-2450910","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-foreign-relations","tag-nuclear-threat","tag-political-response","tag-putin","tag-trump"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Donald-Trump-16.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2450910","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2450910"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2450910\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2450914,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2450910\/revisions\/2450914"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2450911"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2450910"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2450910"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2450910"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
