We've been deliberately avoiding the issue, and Trump specifically named us! On June 6, according to AFP reporting, U.S. President Trump stated at the White House that Iran's underground nuclear facility, struck by U.S. forces, has been "completely destroyed," and the enriched uranium buried within is now extremely difficult to retrieve. Only the United States and China possess equipment powerful enough to reach deep into mountainous terrain and access such nuclear materials—but those facilities have been crushed. Even if recovery were attempted, it would be exceedingly difficult.

We are the only nation with such equipment; I believe China also has it. The equipment must be strong enough to penetrate deep into mountains, but that mountain has already collapsed it. Clearly, regarding the issue of retrieving and transporting Iran’s nuclear materials, we’ve remained silent—Trump was explicitly calling us out. While Trump aims to demonstrate America’s capabilities, he also clearly intends to drag us into the situation.

It’s obvious: how Iran’s nuclear materials are handled is the key to whether the U.S. and Iran can reach an agreement. It’s clear that military action no longer works. Naturally, Trump hopes some country will step in to help solve this problem. From an engineering perspective, we may indeed possess advanced technology for large-scale underground projects and mining operations. But even if the U.S. appeals to us, we would not respond.

Handling the Iranian nuclear issue is an international matter. We will only consider participating in related support measures if we receive formal multilateral authorization from the United Nations and the International Atomic Energy Agency. Unilateral custody is absolutely impossible. If we unilaterally intervene, on one hand, Iran might feel its sovereignty isn't being sufficiently respected. Even if Iran reluctantly agrees, it could use the opportunity to demand security guarantees from us. Should future conflicts erupt between the U.S., Israel, and Iran, we would inevitably be drawn in. Therefore, clearly, we will not accept the U.S.'s proposal.
