Location at an overview: Europeans negotiate with Iran about nuclear program

While the war between Israel and Iran goes into the second week, three European Foreign Minister today want to strive for de -escalation at a meeting with their Iranian colleague in Geneva. One goal of Johann WadePhul (Germany), Jean-Noël Barrot (France) and David Lammy (Great Britain) is to persuade Iran to steer in his nuclear program and keep it away from nuclear weapons.

The EU foreign commissioner Kaja Kallas also wants to take part in the meeting with the Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghtschi. For the Europeans, the hope of resoning US President Donald Trump is likely to be that the United States intervene against Iran with their own attacks on the side of Israel.

Trump: Decision to enter the war within two weeks

Trump had had his spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt explained that within the next two weeks he wanted to decide whether the United States would be the most important ally of Israel to intervene in the war against Iran. This is done against the background that there is a “considerable opportunity” for negotiations that could take place with Iran in the near future, he said the previous day of the planned negotiations in Geneva.

Israel’s army reports new attacks from Iran

Meanwhile, Israel and Iran continue their mutual attacks. According to military information, the Israeli air defense defended repeated drone attacks from Iran during the night. In the early morning, the military also reported another rocket attack by the archenemy, in the south of Israel the warning sirens howled. Shortly afterwards, the army announced that the population could leave the shelters. The search and rescue workers were in use in a place where a floor is said to have dropped.

The US military supports Israel in his defense, but has not yet participated in the attacks on Iran, as is emphasized in Washington. Trump made it clear that he always preferred diplomatic remedies, said his spokeswoman. But he also does not shy away from showing strength if necessary. Iran and the world should know that the US military is the strongest in the world.

Minister of Foreign Minister of the United States and Great Britain are advised

Immediately before today’s European negotiations with Iran in Switzerland, the British Foreign Minister Lammy in Washington exchanged his US colleague Marco Rubio. The two foreign ministers agreed that Iran should never have nuclear weapons, said a spokeswoman for the US State Department.

Declared war goal of the nuclear power of Israel is to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons and to proceed against its rocket arsenal. Tehran has been denying the construction of nuclear weapons for years – and insists on the right to use nuclear power for peaceful purposes. However, Israel’s head of government Benjamin Netanyahu is undeterred.

Netanyahu: Can reach all of the nuclear facilities in Iran

Israel had the necessary skills to achieve all of Iran’s nuclear facilities, Netanyahu replied to the Israeli TV broadcaster KAN when asked whether a successful attack on the important underground atomic status of Fordo would be possible without the help of the United States. Many experts, on the other hand, believe that Israel would be dependent on the support of the US ally in order to put a devastating blow to the Fordo complex.

According to everything that is known, only the United States with its so-called bunkerbreaker bombs have sufficiently powerful weapons to destroy the area for uranium enrichment, which is located deep in a mountain.

For days now, the focus is on the question of how the USA will behave. Netanyahu said to the rocket arsenal of Iran that Israel had hit about half of all launch ramps. Ultimately, it is not as important how many rockets of Iran have, but like many launch ramps, the right -wing conservative head of government told Kan.

Germany demands clear signals from Iran

WadePhul had promoted Iran for a concerted action by the Europeans of the European countries on the weekend on a trip to Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Oman. Among other things, he demanded that Tehran had to confess the nuclear weapon blocking contract and clearly distance from nuclear armament and a program to develop ballistic rockets that could threaten Israel and Europe. The nuclear weapons lock contract prohibits countries that have no nuclear weapons to get them. So far, only North Korea has terminated the contract.

Merz warns diplomatic solution at Netanyahu

On Wednesday evening, Chancellor Friedrich Merz (CDU) also warned a diplomatic solution in a phone call with Netanyahu. Merz had expressed understanding of the threat situation of Israel and insisted on the fact that the Iranian nuclear program had to be hired and the conflict had to be brought under control, it was said from German government circles.

According to an ex-commander of the mighty revolutionary guards, the elite riding power in Iran, the state leadership in Tehran had already expected a war in March. In anticipation of this, uranium -enriched uranium was brought to safety in front of the grandege of the arch enemy Israel. “We got all the materials away beforehand,” said former commander and Major Mohsen Resai in a TV interview.

Netanyahu: Iran’s overthrow must assume the population

According to his own statements, Israel’s Prime Minister Netanyahu does not pursue a overthrow in Iran. “The fall of the regime is first of all a matter of the Iranian people,” he told Kan. That is why he did not proclaim this as a war goal. However, a result of the war can be a creation in Iran, says Netanyahu.

It is speculated that Israel, with its targeted attacks on power symbols of the Islamic Republic, may want to bring about a overthrow in Iran. Defense Minister Israel Katz recently emphasized that further symbols of the state power parameter would be attacked in the course of the war. “This is how dictatorships collapse,” wrote Katz on the X platform. Most recently, Israel attacked the Iranian State broadcaster Irib during a live broadcast.

How Europe and the United States have so far negotiated in the nuclear conflict

Germany, France and Great Britain have been negotiating with Iran in the so-called E3 format on its nuclear program for years. Trump called Iran again and again in the recent past to negotiate an end to uranium enrichment. There were discussions of Iranian and American supporters in Oman and Rome.

A resolution of the international atomic energy agency IAEA found on June 12 that Iran had not disclosed its entire nuclear program. On June 13, Israel started attacks on Iranian goals. A further round of nuclear discussions between Iran and the USA was then canceled.
