The Supreme Leader will need to touch base with his foreign minister.\u00a0 \u201cIranian foreign minister admits serious damage to nuclear sites,\u201d<\/a> BBC, 6-27-25.\u00a0\u00a0\u201cIran’s foreign minister has admitted that “excessive and serious” damage was done to the country’s nuclear sites in the recent US and Israeli bombings. Abbas Araghchi told a state broadcaster on Thursday evening that an assessment of the damage is being carried out by the Atomic Energy Organisation of Iran. But, just hours earlier, Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said the strikes did not disrupt the country’s nuclear programme. Khamenei was responding to US President Donald Trump’s assertion that the bombs had “totally obliterated” three nuclear sites. Khamenei said the US attacks had failed to “accomplish anything significant”. The supreme leader, who has been in hiding since the war with Israel began on 13 June, insisted that Trump had “exaggerated” the impact of the bombs, and declared victory over the US and Israel. But Araghchi’s remarks create a different impression.\u201d<\/p>\n
