Donald Trump, has attacked several US media outlets, including CNN, for publishing a leaked intelligence assessment about the recent U.S. military strikes on three Iranian nuclear sites.
In his speech at NATO Summit in The Hague, President Trump labeled the media “scum”.
He singled out CNN and The New York Times for reporting on the classified Pentagon review.
According to him, the leaked report from the Defense Intelligence Agency estimated that the strikes set Iran’s nuclear programme back by only a “few months” — far less than the “decades”.
Trump defended his description of the strikes as causing the “obliteration” of Iran’s nuclear sites, saying it was a strong word but one that Israel has also used. He insisted that the US attacks had caused significant damage and criticized those questioning the scale of the impact.
Although the press conference has ended, tensions remain high between the Trump administration and the media. Meanwhile, the fragile ceasefire between Israel and Iran appears to be holding, as uncertainty and fears about the future continue to grow within Iran.
