News Desk - U.S. President Donald Trump has raised a fresh alarm over Iran’s nuclear ambitions, saying Tehran may be trying to restart its programme at a different, deeper site even as talks continue over ending the wider conflict in West Asia. His warning comes at a delicate moment, with Washington pushing diplomacy while insisting that any deal must block Iran from ever obtaining a nuclear weapon.

Trump said the original nuclear site had been “totally destroyed” and suggested Iran could be attempting to move sensitive work elsewhere, possibly underground, after repeated strikes and mounting pressure on its atomic infrastructure. Reporting over recent weeks has pointed to concerns about fortified facilities near Natanz and other hidden locations, including the Pickaxe Mountain area, which analysts say could be used for renewed enrichment activity. The fears are reinforced by accounts that Iran has continued fortifying military and nuclear sites while restricting outside access, deepening uncertainty about how much of its programme remains intact.

The nuclear issue remains the most difficult part of the broader U.S.-Iran talks, with earlier reporting showing that the two sides are still far apart on enrichment, inspections and sanctions relief. Iran has repeatedly said its programme is peaceful and has rejected accusations that it is seeking a bomb, but Western officials remain concerned about stockpiles of near weapons grade uranium and the possibility of covert restoration work. Trump’s comments suggest the administration is keeping military pressure on the table even as it pursues a diplomatic outcome.

For now, the talks are still alive, but the nuclear file remains volatile and distrust between Washington and Tehran is high. Trump’s latest warning shows that any peace effort could quickly unravel if the U.S. concludes Iran is quietly rebuilding its capabilities at a new site.
