Dispute over nuclear program
Trump wants “nuclear peace agreement” with the Iran
Once again, the US President signals his willingness for a deal with Iran and even puts a large “Middle East celebration” in the room. The government in Tehran is still covered.
US President Donald Trump has again promoted Iran in the nuclear dispute. “I want Iran to be a great and successful country, but it is not allowed to have a nuclear weapon,” he wrote Truth Social on his platform. Reports that the United States and Israel wanted to “hunt Iran” were very exaggerated. He prefers a “nuclear peace agreement” that enables Iran to “grow and thrive peacefully”.
“We should start immediately and organize a large Middle East celebration when it is signed and completed,” Trump continued. The Republican had already contacted Iran the evening before with a message of the willingness to talk, but at the same time spoke threats. His government will put “maximum pressure” on Iran, he said, among other things, sanctions should be initiated.
Iran signals willingness to talk
After Trump’s statements from the previous evening, Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghtschi also indicated willingness to talk. “If the main concern is that Iran do not strive for weapons, it can be reached,” he said on the sidelines of a cabinet session in Tehran. Iran’s Vice President Mohammed-Resa Area said more reserved. A high -ranking meeting between Trump and Iran’s President Massud Peseschkian is not on the agenda.
Iranian leadership sees the USA as an arch enemy. The US government has long been tracting Iran with far-reaching sanctions.
In the past, the West had repeatedly accused the Islamic Republic of striving for nuclear weapons. Most recently, the dispute over Iran’s nuclear program had come back. After a formal criticism of the International Atomic Energy Agency IAEA, Tehran announced the commissioning of thousands of new centrifuges for uranium enrichment. Iran uranium currently enhances up to a purity degree of 60 percent, according to experts, more than 90 percent are required for nuclear weapons.
During his first term as US President, Trump had unilaterally released the Vienna nuclear pact in 2018, which was supposed to restrict Iran’s nuclear program and, in return, cancel sanctions. After that, Tehran no longer adhered to the requirements of the agreement.
