President Donald Trump said the U.S. will work with Iran to retrieve and destroy its highly enriched uranium if he is able to cut a deal with Tehran to end the three-month-old war between the countries — or, in the absence of an agreement, that he will further degrade the Iranian military to the point that American forces can safely collect the material on their own.

Main Idea: President Donald Trump said the U.S. may help Iran destroy its enriched uranium if a peace deal is reached, or use military force later if no deal is made.
Key Points:
Keeping US troops in the region and threatening more military action could keep gas prices, inflation, and safety risks higher for households and workers.
A deal that destroys Iran’s uranium could lower the chance of a wider war and eventually ease oil prices for consumers and small businesses.
