Trump's mouth is open Iran may have a Tomahawk? The central point of the global political scene
It became news immediately after Donald Trump, the former US president, interviewed a journalist on his way to Iran and said in part that Iran may be under the control of the Tomahawk nuclear weapons industry - strategic arms produced by the United States and owned only by a few countries.

His remarks have puzzled many journalists because there is no information or evidence that Iran has ever had such weapons before, with one reporter repeatedly asking directly: "What do you mean by this?"

You just said as if Iran had dropped Tomahawk missiles from nowhere and bombed its own elementary school since the first day of the war... but you were the only one in government to say this, even though Secretary of Defense didn't dare speak while standing behind you on a plane last Saturday.

This question caused Trump to pause for a moment before responding with an accent that seemed to back off from what he had said earlier.

Because I myself don't know all the information yet, it is still under investigation... but Thomas Hoagney's nuclear weapons are not just for us as a single country. Many countries have them too; they buy from us, but I will wait to see how the report comes out and then accept the results of that inquiry.

Trump's answer was considered a question-and-answer stunt, or an explanation later on because as far as is known from the world wide disclosure, the Tomahawk missile is a U.S.-made weapon and only two countries actually use it: the United States and Great Britain, while Japan and Australia are just in between procurement and approval stages.

No name Iran appears in any military cooperation reports.

The U.S. media is very confused about whether it's true or false?
After the conversation was leaked that same evening, various news outlets and online media analyzed Trump's remarks. Some sources said that Trump may have received a confidential intelligence report which is not clear to him and then spoke out uncertainly while others considered this speech as a political ploy to put pressure on Washington's current government.

Some military media have even speculated that Trump linked Iran to Tomahawk just by saying something wrong or revealing a secret?

International security experts from the RAND Research Center in the United States explain that if Iran actually had Tomahawk missiles, it would be considered a major news story about a shifting balance of power in the Middle East because such weapons fly thousands of kilometers away, are highly precise and used on missions against key targets like military bases and arms factories.

It is not a commonly purchased item like drones or rifles Analysts say if Iran exists, it means that there is a leak of advanced technology which will compromise global stability
