CIA Analyst Claims Iran Will Demonstrate Nuclear Weapon With Third Country

What was said

"Iran will even be prepared to do a demonstration of a nuclear weapon that they have acquired with the assistance of a third country. And I will not mention the country. But it will be not for use. It will be to demonstrate that leave us alone, like North Korea."

Former CIA analyst Larry Johnson revealed intelligence from a West Asian source claiming Iran plans to withdraw from nuclear negotiations and the Non-Proliferation Treaty, then demonstrate a nuclear weapon obtained with help from a third country, likely Pakistan. The claim suggests Iran is pursuing a North Korea-style deterrence strategy in response to ongoing military pressure from Israel and the U.S.
