Netanyahu says war with Iran is not over: ‘There’s work to be done’
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Sunday that the war is ongoing pointing to Iran’s nuclear material and infrastructure as the central unresolved threat in an interview on CBS “60 Minutes.”
“Because there's still nuclear material, enriched uranium that has to be taken out of Iran, there is still enrichment sites that have to be dismantled,” he said.
“There are still proxies that Iran supports. There are ballistic missiles that they still want to produce.”
Netanyahu also said the U.S. and Israel have “degraded a lot of it, but all of that is still there, and there's work to be done.”
When asked how Iran’s enriched uranium could be removed from the country, the Israeli leader said President Donald Trump told him, “I want to go in there.”
“I think it can be done physically. That's not the problem,” he said.
