U.S. Defense Secretary confronts Congress over Iran conflict
The session before the U.S. Senate involved a discussion about funding military operations against Iran. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth defended the U.S. military efforts to target Iran's nuclear capabilities and halt its missile program, emphasizing that the nuclear sites targeted still pose a threat to Iran's attempt to acquire nuclear weapons. Hegseth faced criticism from Senators Kirsten Gillibrand and Gary Peters regarding the effectiveness of the American strategy and the costs of the war. Peters accused him of failure and wasting funds, while the secretary defended the military sacrifices and the importance of preventing Iran from developing nuclear weapons. These discussions come as the Trump administration seeks to secure additional funding close to $70 billion to continue the war against Iran, amid notable criticism over the lack of a clear strategy to achieve victory in the conflict.
