"President Donald Trump�s special envoy to the Middle East, Steve Witkoff, said Monday on Fox News that Iranian negotiators bragged to him that Iran had enough enriched uranium to make nearly a dozen nuclear bombs."

"The account fits a key piece of the administration�s evolving rationale for joining with Israel to preemptively strike Iran: Trump himself has said he believes the Iranian regime was close to having nuclear weapons, as well as missiles capable of carrying them to the United States."

� 'In that first meeting, both the Iranian negotiators said to us directly, with no shame, that they controlled 460 kilograms of 60%,' Witkoff said in the Fox interview, referring to the uranium�s level of enrichment. 'And they�re aware that that could make 11 nuclear bombs, and that was the beginning of their negotiating stance.' "

"However, a Persian Gulf diplomat with direct knowledge of the talks told MS NOW that Witkoff�s description of the conversation was false."
