U.S. President Donald Trump said in a Fox News interview that he sees no logic in approving a civilian nuclear program for Iran as part of any agreement. This contradicts his previous statements and the position of Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who claimed the U.S. would allow Iran to develop such a program. When asked if he would allow Iran to enrich uranium for civilian nuclear purposes, he firmly responded: 'No,' adding: 'Why would someone with such amounts of oil and gas need civilian nuclear energy at all? It makes no sense.'
