US President Donald Trump brushed off concerns on Monday that hitting Iran’s power facilities as he has threatened after a deadline expires this week would be a war crime.

“I’m not worried about it,” Trump told reporters at an Easter egg roll at the White House when asked what he would say to those who allege that striking power plants would breach the laws of war.

“You know the war crime? The war crime is allowing Iran to have a nuclear weapon,” the president said.
