Many waited for his press conference and his background background, but the news that came about was his nuclear program.
As the US president revealed, the US and Iran are starting direct talks on the Tehran nuclear program. A surprise announcement after Iranian officials had appeared to repel US calls for such negotiations.
Iran had reacted to Trump’s demands to negotiate immediately for his nuclear program or to be bombed, although he had initially left the door open for indirect discussions.
“We have direct conversations with Iran and have begun. Will continue on Saturday. We have a very big meeting and we will see what can happen »Trump told reporters at the Oval Office during talks with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu who visited Iran.
“If the conversations are not successful, Iran will be in danger”
“And I think everyone agrees that it would be better to make a deal”said Trump. Despite the questions he received, the US president did not give further details.
Asked if he is ready to take military action in Iran, Trump said: “I think if talks with Iran are not successful, Iran will be at great risk.”
“If the conversations are not successful, I really think it will be a very bad day for Iran”said Trump.
The first conversations from 2015
During the 2017-2021 term, Trump withdrew the US from a 2015 agreement between Iran and the world forces that set strict limits on the controversial nuclear activities of Tehran in exchange for the relief of sanctions. Trump also re -imposed a sweeping US sanctions.
Since then, Iran has far exceeded the limits of this agreement on uranium enrichment.
Western forces accuse Iran of having a secret agenda for the development of nuclear weapons capacity with uranium enrichment at a high level of tornness, above what they say is justified for a political atomic energy program.
Tehran says that its nuclear program is entirely for political energy purposes.
