National Security Adviser Mike Waltz has reaffirmed President Donald Trump’s unwavering commitment to preventing Iran from ever acquiring nuclear weapons, warning that the administration will take any action necessary to ensure Tehran’s nuclear ambitions are crushed.

Speaking on Fox News Sunday, Waltz addressed growing speculation that Israel may take military action against Iran’s nuclear facilities within the next six months. While he declined to confirm specifics, he made it clear that Trump is fully aligned with Israel and will not tolerate a nuclear-armed Iran.

“The message is simple: Iran will never have a nuclear weapon. Period.”

U.S. Ready to Take Action

Waltz warned that a nuclear Iran would trigger a catastrophic arms race in the Middle East, destabilizing the region and threatening both American allies and global security. He emphasized that Trump has put all options on the table, and while diplomatic solutions are always preferable, military intervention is not off the table if Iran refuses to back down.

“Iran’s regime is on notice. If they think they can stall for time or cheat their way to a nuclear weapon, they are making a fatal miscalculation,” Waltz stated.

Trump’s Track Record: Strength Over Appeasement

This hardline stance comes as Trump reverses Biden-era policies that enabled Iran’s aggression. Unlike the previous administration, which lifted sanctions and emboldened Tehran’s nuclear development, Trump’s strategy is rooted in maximum pressure, military deterrence, and unwavering support for Israel.

Trump has already ordered increased intelligence surveillance on Iran’s nuclear sites and strengthened military cooperation with Israel and Gulf allies to prepare for any scenario.

America Will Not Let Iran Dictate the Future

As Iran continues to defy international pressure, Trump’s administration is making it clear: Iran’s nuclear ambitions will be stopped—by diplomacy if possible, by force if necessary.

With tensions rising and Israel possibly on the brink of military action, Trump’s leadership ensures that America will not sit idly by while the world’s most dangerous regime threatens global stability.
