The US leader has criticized the former Russian president for suggesting some nations may provide Iran with nuclear weapons

US President Donald Trump has cautioned the deputy chairman of Russia's Security Council against "casually" talking about nuclear weapons. The comment came after the former Russian president suggested that several unnamed countries were prepared to provide Iran with weapons of mass destruction.

On June 22, the US bombed Iran's nuclear facilities in Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan and claimed that its warplanes had severely degraded the Islamic Republic's nuclear program. The attack was preceded by massive air raids against Iran by Israel.

In a post on his Truth Social platform on Monday, Trump wrote: "Did I hear Former President Medvedev, from Russia, casually throwing around the 'N word' (Nuclear!), and saying that he and other Countries would supply Nuclear Warheads to Iran?"

The US head of state asked for immediate confirmation or rebuttal, insisting that "the 'N word' should not be treated so casually."

Trump went on to boast about America's superior military capabilities, both air- and sea-borne, citing the weekend bombardment of Iran as proof.
