We can destroy Iran’s 38 bridges in one hour; three US aircraft carriers are in the Middle East fully ready for war, but we do not want to destroy Iranian infrastructure, says Trump<\/strong><\/p>\n

WASHINGTON (Voice of Russia): US President Donald Trump has said that the United States has identified targets on Iranian soil for strikes in case military operations against Iran possibly resume, but Washington does not want to target them.<\/p>\n

In an interview with the American broadcaster CNN, President Donald Trump said that the US is ready to resume attacks against Iran, and that three US aircraft carriers are currently in the Middle East.<\/p>\n

The US President said that another aircraft carrier has recently arrived in the region, after which the number of US aircraft carriers there has become three. According to him, all three ships are fully armed and ready for military action.<\/p>\n

President Trump said that among the targets identified in Iran are 38 bridges, which US forces can destroy within just one hour.<\/p>\n

He said that if the decision is made to target these bridges, all 38 bridges will be destroyed.<\/p>\n

However, the US President made clear that he does not prefer to destroy Iran’s infrastructure.<\/p>\n

Donald Trump said he does not want to do this because rebuilding these bridges could take about 10 years.<\/p>\n

The US President further said that he does not like destroying bridges because building bridges is an extremely difficult task and takes many years.<\/p>\n

Referring to his construction expertise, President Trump said he is a good builder and knows how difficult it is to build a bridge.<\/p>\n

According to the US President, Washington has already set the targets for possible military action and US forces are in a state of full readiness, but he wants to avoid destroying Iranian infrastructure.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
