Nuclear weapon: We’ll have no choice – Iran warns US over Trump’s bombing threats

Published on April 01, 2025 at 05:23 AM

Iran has warned the United States of America that it would have no choice but to acquire a nuclear weapon if attacked.

Ali Larijana, an adviser to Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, gave the warning in an interview with state TV on Monday night.

He gave the warning following a threat by the President of the United States of America, Donald Trump.

The American leader told NBC News on Saturday that “there will be bombing”; if Iran did not agree to a new nuclear deal.

Khamenei had hours earlier promised to hit back if the US president made good on his threat to bomb the Islamic republic.

Larijana said, “We are not moving towards [nuclear] weapons, but if you do something wrong in the Iranian nuclear issue, you will force Iran to move towards that because it has to defend itself.

“Iran does not want to do this, but... [it] will have no choice.

“If at some point you [the US] move towards bombing by yourself or through Israel, you will force Iran to make a different decision.”;

However, it remains unclear whether Trump was threatening bombing by US planes alone or perhaps in an operation coordinated with another country, possibly Iran’s nemesis, Israel.
