The facts
PolitiFact rated the claim False. In March 2026 Trump described the four to five week timeline as the length of the overall war, not a separate nuclear goal. Experts said the 2025 and 2026 strikes set back Iran's nuclear programme without eliminating it, and the United States has not secured Iran's highly enriched uranium.
