In a surprising announcement on Monday, the United States President Donald Trump revealed that the United States and Iran are about to begin direct talks on Tehran’s nuclear program on Saturday.
Although the Iranian Foreign Minister said that the talks in Oman would be indirect, Trump has warned that if the talks have failed, “Iran poses a lot of danger”, which indicates a difficult path to any agreement between the two geographical political enemies.
Recently, Iran withdrew against Trump’s demands to negotiate or bomb its nuclear program, and it seems that it is in this position on Monday.
“We are talking directly with Iran, and they have started. It will continue on Saturday. We will have a great meeting, and we will see what can happen,” Trump told reporters at the Oval Office during a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
“And I think everyone agrees that it will be better to make a deal,” Trump said. He added that Saturday’s talks with Iran will be at a very high level, without any explanation. He refused to say where the talks would take place, but the possibility was eliminated that the contract could be made.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Iraqi has posted on X that indirect high -level talks will be held in Oman, adding: “This is just as an opportunity as it is a test. The ball is in the US court.”
Former President Joe Biden’s tenure during his tenure was indirectly discussed, but there was little progress. The last known direct talks between the two governments were under the then President Barack Obama, who led the 2015 international nuclear deal, which was later abandoned by Trump.
Trump’s warning of military action against Iran had already removed the nerves of tension in the Middle East after an open war in the region, a change in leadership in Syria.
Trump, who has promoted the presence of the US military in the region since taking office in January, said he would prefer the agreement on the armed conflict on Iran’s nuclear program, and on March 7, he said he had written to Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenea to propose talks.
Iranian officials had said that Tehran would not be threatened in the talks.
Trump said in the Oval Office on Monday, “Iran cannot have nuclear weapons, and if the dialogue is not successful, I really believe that this will be a very bad day for Iran.”
Without the clear approval of Khamenei, there would be no direct dialogue, who said in February that the talks with the United States “are not smart, wise or respected.”
Iran insists indirect talks
Hours before Trump’s announcement, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Ismail Baghi said Iran was waiting for the US response to Tehran’s proposal to indirect talks. He said that the Islamic Republic believes that it is making a wise, responsible and honorable offer.
After Trump spoke, a senior Iranian official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told Reuters: “The negotiations will not be directly … this will happen with Oman’s mediation.” Oman, which maintains good relations with both the United States and Iran, has been a long -time channel for messages between rival states.
Iran’s nephews affiliated with the country’s top security agency described Trump’s statement about the direct meeting of the “Psychological Operations to Influence domestic and international public opinion”.
Another Iranian official, speaking on anonymity, said that there was about two months window to reach an agreement at the end of the weekend, stating that if the talks take longer, Iran’s long -time enemy Israel could launch its attack.
Netanyahu, who has shown little support for US talks with Iran, said that if diplomacy could prevent Tehran from receiving nuclear weapons, “the way I was done in Libya, I think it would be a good thing.”
During his 2017-2021, Trump withdrew the United States from the 2015 agreement between Iran and world powers designed to prevent Iran’s sensitive nuclear work in exchange for sanctions. Trump also responded to clearing US sanctions.
Since then, Iran has extended the boundaries of this agreement on enrichment of uranium.
Western powers have accused Iran of being a secret agenda for promoting nuclear weapons by purity of uranium at high levels, more than justifying the urban nuclear energy program.
Tehran says its nuclear program is fully for civilian energy purposes.
The White House’s National Security Council did not immediately respond to the request for details.
Another important Iranian ally, the fall of Syrian President Bashar al -Assad, has further weakened the influence of the Islamic Republic.
