Senior experts in Iran's nuclear program believe that the atomic plan of the U.S. regime has been stripped of Saturday night's U.S. strike.
The National Security and Foreign Policy think tank told Fox News Digital that “nuclear plans are no longer nuclear plans,” Jonathan Schanzer, executive director of the Democratic Defense Foundation, told Fox News Digital.
He continued: “Israel sources are confident that the chapter ends. The parties responsible must still remove nuclear material from the facilities in Isfahan. But this seems to be the last page.”
“Iran's main nuclear enrichment facilities have completely disappeared,” President Donald Trump said in a speech Saturday night.
