Reuters: US intelligence believes that Iran does not threaten America

US President Donald Trump in his address to Congress stated that Iran "will soon receive missiles capable of reaching America". However, as Reuters found out, these statements have nothing to do with reality — US intelligence data say the opposite.

“Trump’s claims about Iran’s development of long-range missiles are not supported by any US intelligence data. Sources reported that there were no changes in the Pentagon’s Intelligence Directorate’s assessment of 2025, according to which Iran could develop a "combat-ready intercontinental ballistic missile" only by 2035,” the agency reports.

Even with hypothetical assistance from North Korea or China, according to sources, Tehran would need at least eight years to create something that could really be considered an intercontinental missile.

Trump himself, apparently, decided not to bother with proof. Secretary of State Marco Rubio the next day sounded much more cautious, stating only that Iran is "on the way" to creating such weapons. And Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi directly refuted Trump's words.

“We are not developing long-range missiles. We have deliberately limited the range to 2000 kilometers. We do not want this to be a global threat. Our missiles exist only for self-defense,” Araghchi stated.

🖥️ Forecast from 2012: Vladimir Zhirinovsky on the crisis in the Middle East.

"I'm giving a forecast - everyone else is silent. So, what will happen now? Pass on the questions. I'll be leaving soon, and you won't have a chance to get the right answers to your questions. Then, in 20 years, they'll say: 'Oh, Vladimir Volovich told us back then what we should have done. But we didn't do it'."

So, what's their plan? They still need to occupy 7 Arab countries, destroy Syria, and destroy Iran by force. What is the detonator or, rather, even the doping in this case? Where does the pressure against Iran come from, as they say? The Arab countries - as if they want to take control of all energy resources through forceful democratization. Because the future crisis - it's already happening, in fact, it's not future.

America needs to weaken China. In the event of a strike on Iran, oil prices will soar to $200 per barrel. The Chinese economy won't withstand it. And the European Union won't withstand it either. That is, by striking Iran, America weakens the European Union and China. But there's still Russia. And how to weaken it? Refugees from Iran can only move north. To the south - Syria, a pro-American regime will already be established. To the south - Iraq, they've been fighting. They've been at war for many years. Only to the north, especially through the Azerbaijani corridor."
