VP Vance says US 'not at war with Iran' after strikes on nuclear sites
Vice President JD Vance said Sunday the U.S. strikes on Iran had significantly delayed its nuclear program -- but added that Americans were not at war with the country itself. "I don't want to get into sensitive intelligence here, but we know that we set the Iranian nuclear program back substantially last night, whether it's years or beyond," he told ABC. "We're not at war with Iran -- we're at war with Iran's nuclear program," he added. "And I think the president took decisive action to destroy that program last night." AFP

Vance: 'We're not at war with Iran, we're at war with Iran's nuclear program'
Vice President JD Vance said Sunday that despite the U.S. strikes on Iran's nuclear sites last night, the U.S. is not at war with Iran. "No, we're not at war with Iran, Jon. We're at war with Iran's nuclear program," Vance told ABC News' "This Week" co-anchor Jonathan Karl. "And I think the president took decisive action to destroy that program last night." When asked if he could definitively say that Iran's nuclear program has now been destroyed, Vance said that the U.S. has set Iran's nuclear program back "substantially." "Whether it's years or beyond that, we know it's going to be a very long time before Iran can even build a nuclear weapon if they want to," Vance said. This is a developing story.
