Iran rejects direct nuclear negotiations with the United States in response to Trump's letter

Dubai, the United Arab Emirates (AP), the Iranian President said on Sunday that the Islamic Republic had rejected direct negotiations with the United States about its rapid advance nuclear program, offering Tehran's first response to a letter that the Uu.S. President Donald Trippese at the supreme head of the country.

President Masoud Pezeshkians said Iran's response, delivered by Oman's sultanate, left the possibility of indirect negotiations with Washington. However, such talks have made no progress since Trump in his first mandate unilaterally withdrew the United States from the Tehran Nuclear Agreement with the world powers in 2018.

In the years that followed, regional tensions have boiled attacks in Seaandon Land. Then, Camethe Israel-Hamas Warin The Gaza Strip, which saw Israel target militant group leaders through the self-proclaimed “resistance axis” of Iran. Now, like Theu.s. Creating intense air accessories targeting the Houthi rebels supported by Iran in Yemen, the risk of military action targeting Iran's nuclear program remains on the table.

We do not avoid talks; It is the violation of promises that have caused us problems so far, Pezeshkian said in television remarks at a meeting of the cabinet. They must prove that they can strengthen confidence.

The American State Department, responding to Pezeshkian, said that President Trump has been clear: the United States cannot allow Iran to acquire a nuclear weapon. »»

The president expressed his desire to discuss an agreement with Iran, he added. “If the Iranian regime does not agree, the president is clear, he will continue other options, which will be very bad for Iran.

Trump said before the Pezeshkians commented that he was considering military action and secondary prices, if Iran does not accept a nuclear agreement.

If they do not conclude, there will be bombings and it will be bombardments they have never seen before, “said Trump in a comment released on Sunday by NBC News.

Iran's position hardens after Trump's letter

The fact that Pezeshkian announces that the decision shows how much has changed in Iran, since its elections a half year ago after campaigning on a promise to re-engage with the West.

Since the election of Trump and the resumption of its maximum pressure campaign on Tehran, the Iranian rial has come into free fall. Pezeshkian had left open discussions until the 85 -year -old supreme chief of Iran, 85, was hard on Trump in February and warned that the talks are not intelligent, wise or honorable “with his administration. The Iranian President then immediately hardened his own remarks in the United States.

Meanwhile, there have been mixed messages from Iran for weeks. Friday, the videos of Quds, or Jerusalem, made the participants only screams people in the crowd of screaming: death in Israel! As a rule, death in America has also been heard.

A video of an underground missile base unveiled by the paramilitary guard of the hard line of Iran also showed that his troops were walking on an Israeli flag painted on the ground, although there is no American flag also often seen in such propaganda videos.

But Press TV, the English language branch of Iranian state television, published an article last week which included the list of American bases in the Middle East as possible attack targets. The list included Camp Thunder Cove on Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean, where the United States is based on the B-2 Bomberslikey stealth used in Yemen.

The Americans themselves know how vulnerable they are, warned the president of the Iranian parliament Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf on Friday. “If they violate the sovereignty of Irans, it will be like a spark in a cannon powder depot, putting the whole region on fire. In such a scenario, their bases and their allies will not be safe.

However, the two recent Direct Tehran attacks against ballistic missiles and Tehran drones have caused negligible damage, while Israel responded by destroying Iranian air defense systems.

Iran rejection is the last of tensions on the nuclear program

Trump's letter arrived in Tehran on March 12. Although the announcement that he wrote it in a television interview, Trump offered little details on what he said exactly to the supreme chief.

I wrote a saying letter to them: I hope you are going to negotiate because if we have to go militarily, it will be a terrible thing, Trump said in the interview.

The move recalled that the letters of the North Korean leader Kim Jong one during his first mandate, which led to face-to-face meetings, but goal no to limit the atomic bombs of Pyongyangs a missile program capable of reaching the continental United States

The last time Trump tried to send a letter to Khamenei, through the deceased Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe in 2019, the supreme chief made fun of the effort.

Trumps' letter came both while Israel and the United States warned that it would never let Iran acquire a nuclear weapon, causing fears of a military confrontation while Tehran enriches uranium at levels close to the purity of 60% of 60% something only does by atomic armed nations.

Iran has long maintained that its program has been for peaceful purposes, even if its officials are increasingly threatening to continue the bomb. A report in February, however, by the International Atomic Energy Agency, based in Vienna, the Watchdog Nuclear US, said that Iran had accelerated its production of weapon level uranium.

Iran's reluctance to face Trump probably takes place in his order of the attack that killed Iraniangenge. Qassem Soleimaniin a Baghdad Drone Strike in January 2020.
