Texas Senator Ted Cruz is praising President Trump's strike on Iran, saying it helped him during his visit to NATO today. He told Fox News this morning, "The Saturday military strike on Iran, taking on their nuclear weapons facility, was a spectacular success, it was brilliantly executed, and it was tremendously effective in protecting not just our friend and ally Israel, but critically protecting America and Keeping American's safe."
President Trump himself refuted reports and leaks about last weekend's strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities.
"The last thing they want to do is enrich anything right now," he said. "They want to recover... I think we'll end up having somewhat of a relationship with Iran... the last thing they want to do is enrich."
This comes after a leaked intel report claiming that the strikes did not degrade Iran's capabilities, and only delayed it by months. The White House Special Envoy, to the Middle East, Steve Witkoff, is pushing back on that.
