Former President Donald Trump stated on October 15th, 2025, that Iran is "trying to survive" and expressed a lack of concern regarding reports of Iran seeking to build a nuclear weapon. Trump made these remarks in response to news that emerged approximately two weeks prior concerning Iran's nuclear ambitions. The comments were shared via a post on X, formerly Twitter, by user @atrupar.
