Tulsi Gabbard now says Iran could produce nuclear weapon 'within weeks'

  • On June 20, 2025, Tulsi Gabbard, serving as Director of National Intelligence, indicated that US intelligence suggests Iran may be capable of completing a nuclear weapon in a matter of weeks or months if it chooses to finalize its assembly.
  • This statement marked a shift from Gabbard's March 2025 congressional testimony, where she said US intelligence judged Iran was not actively building nuclear weapons, a point disputed by President Trump.
  • The announcement came amid escalating Iran–Israel conflict following Israeli air strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities and Iran's retaliatory missile attacks that reportedly killed 25 in Israel.
  • President Trump publicly contradicted Gabbard on Friday and Monday, declaring, "She is wrong," and "I don't care what she says," aligning more with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu's view of an imminent Iranian nuclear threat.
  • The US administration continues deliberations on involvement in the Middle East conflict while both Gabbard and Trump warn Iran against advancing its nuclear program, maintaining concerns about a potentially imminent weaponization.
