President Donald Trump said Wednesday the US may have to attack Iran even harder, but will wait to see if a deal is reached.
"We hit them very hard. We may have to hit them even harder - but maybe not," Trump said at the US Coast Guard Academy commencement.
"We will not let Iran have a nuclear weapon. It's very simple," he told the cadets.
Trump claimed Iran's military might is largely gone, questioning whether the US should finish the job or Iran will sign a deal.
"Everything's gone. Their navy's gone. Their air force is gone. The only question is, do we go and finish it up? Are they going to be signing a document? Let's see what happens," Trump said.
He also stated negotiations with Iran are in the final stages, warning of additional attacks unless a nuclear deal is reached.
