President Donald Trump on Tuesday claimed Iran is seeking to develop missiles that can strike the United States -- long-range weapons technology that only a limited number of countries possess.

"They've already developed missiles that can threaten Europe and our bases overseas, and they're working to build missiles that will soon reach the United States of America," Trump said during his State of the Union address.
