Nuclear Agreement: Dispute over Iran’s nuclear program: Trump threatens bombing

US President Donald Trump threatened Iran with a massive military operation. If Tehran does not agree to an agreement to limit his nuclear program “there will be bombing, bombing that you have never seen before,” said Trump in an NBC interview.

The US government and other western states, including Israel, want to prevent the Islamic Republic of Iran, which is dominated by Shiite spiritual, develops its own nuclear weapons. In his first term in 2018, however, Trump had unilaterally released the so -called Viennese nuclear pact, which was supposed to limit Iran’s nuclear program and, in return, cancel sanctions. After that, Tehran no longer adhered to the requirements of the agreement.

Iran complains “misconduct” of the United States

At the same time, Trump announced that he was considering so -called secondary tariffs as a means of pressure. These US tariffs would hit countries that buy Iran, for example, oil.

Iranian President Massud Peseschkian had previously rejected direct negotiations with the Trump government. But one is open to indirect conversations, he said in Tehran. The United States would first have to correct its “misconduct” of the past and create a new basis for trust, according to the President, according to the ISNA news agency.

Production of almost nuclear weapons -compatible uranium

At the end of February, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) in Vienna reported that Iran has greatly accelerated the production of almost nuclear weapons -compatible uranium in recent months – despite previous discussions about limiting production. IAEA boss Rafael Grossi pointed out that Iran was the only state without nuclear weapons that made such material. The “significantly increased production and accumulation” of 60 percent uranium “give rise to serious concern”.
