Ryan Crocker, former US ambassador to Afghanistan, has said that no one wants Iran to have nuclear weapons.
Crocker said in an interview with ABC News that US President Donald Trump has effectively decided on military action.
“There will be a take it or leave it. Iranians won’t take it, and bombs away. That is certainly in prospect,” he said.
“No one wants to see a nuclear-armed Iran,” Crocker said. “But again, the consequences of a military intervention, as we have seen, can be very hard to calculate and even harder to guide.”
US and Iranian officials are expected to hold talks in Oman on Saturday.
