Donald Trump, the president of the United States, said that America can target Iran’s bridges and power plants, but rebuilding these infrastructures would take years and would put heavy pressure on the people; a pressure, he said, that he does not want.

He also said that the United States is monitoring the "Kuh Kolang" developments and so far has not attacked them, because, according to him, there has been no activity there. Trump emphasized that if necessary, the United States could attack that location within five minutes.

Trump added that the Islamic Republic cannot pay the salaries of soldiers and the IRGC forces and will ultimately be forced to behave rationally.

He also defended the U.S. military action by saying that if it finds itself in the same conditions again, it would make the same decision.
