Trump vows US will retrieve uranium from Iran

President Donald Trump vowed on Thursday that the United States will eventually recover ‌Iran's stockpile of highly enriched uranium despite comments from Iran that it will not hand over the material.

"We will get it. We don't need it, we don't ⁠want it. We'll probably destroy it after we get it, but we're not going to let them have it," Trump told reporters at the White House.
