President Trump reveals he discussed with Tehran and plans further talks, demanding Iran abandon nuclear weapons and stop killing protesters.
Trump on Iran Talks
On January 29 in Washington during a conversation with journalists, Donald Trump responded to the United States’ plans toward Iran. He informed that he had discussed with Tehran and plans further talks. – We now have many very large, very powerful ships heading to Iran and it would be wonderful if we didn’t have to use them – stated Trump.
He also informed that recently he told the Iranian side two things: ‘no nuclear weapons and stop killing protesters’. – They will have to do something – he added.
USA Gathering Forces in the Middle East
On the same day, Pentagon chief Pete Hegseth conveyed that the military will carry out all the president’s orders. According to ‘Wall Street Journal’, Trump had received from the White House and Pentagon plans regarding a possible attack on Iran.
Objects belonging to the regime and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps would then be attacked. Let’s recall, in recent days, a US strike group with the aircraft carrier USS ‘Abraham Lincoln’ moved from the South China Sea towards the Middle East.
On board are fighter-bombers, and the strike group also includes destroyers armed with missiles and at least one submarine. The decision to move the aircraft carrier came at a time when the situation in Iran became tense due to the economic crisis and mass protests.
Trump Calls for New Iranian Leadership
A few days ago, Trump suggested that ‘help is on the way’, which was interpreted as a signal of possible US intervention. Sources quoted by ‘The New York Times’ stated that Trump is waiting for Iran’s next move, considering attacks on missile launchers or Iranian internal security structures.
US partners in the Middle East, including Turkey, Oman and Qatar, have appealed to the Trump administration to abandon military attacks on Iran and focus on diplomatic talks.
Let’s recall, in the last three weeks, thousands of protesters have died in Iran, which prompted the US president to repeatedly threaten military intervention. The authorities in Tehran in social media accused Donald Trump of inciting riots.
Previously, in an interview with ‘Politico’, Donald Trump called for an end to the 37-year rule of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in Iran. According to the US president, he is guilty of the total destruction of his country. – It’s time to look for new leadership in Iran – stated Trump.
