According to CoinMeta, White House press secretary Sarah Levyt stated on August 5th that reports claiming there was a dispute between President Trump and Defense Secretary James Mattis at Camp David in Maryland due to a severe shortage of U.S. military missiles caused by the Iran conflict were "fake news." Levyt said that she was present at Camp David with Trump and Mattis at the time, and the events mentioned in the reports did not occur. They had clarified this point multiple times with The Washington Post. The newspaper cited sources familiar with the matter, stating that last week Trump expressed strong dissatisfaction regarding the Iran issue at Camp David and demanded an explanation from Mattis regarding the severe shortage of weapons.
