Senator Mark Warner (D-Va.) said Sunday that President Trump has not sufficiently demonstrated that Iran presented an imminent threat that would justify U.S. military strikes against the country.

Warner's comments came during discussions about the administration's military actions and policy toward Iran. The Virginia Democrat expressed concerns about the justification provided for potential or recent strikes on Iranian targets.

"I really do feel like when we've got America's interest, when we've got dead service members, that we've not made the case, that the President has not made the case," Warner stated, referring to what he sees as insufficient evidence of an imminent Iranian threat.

The senator's remarks reflect ongoing congressional scrutiny of the Trump administration's Iran policy and military decision-making process. Questions about the threshold for military action and the evidence required to justify strikes have been subjects of debate between lawmakers and the executive branch.

Warner's position adds to Democratic criticism of the administration's approach to Iran, particularly regarding transparency about intelligence assessments and the decision-making process for authorizing military operations.
