US-Iran Nuclear Talks to Commence
Despite escalating tensions, Iran and the US will soon meet to discuss the former’s nuclear weapons development.
President Donald Trump recently announced his administration will lead negotiations with Iran to halt their development of nuclear weapons.
While President Trump claimed the US is already in “direct talks” with Iran, he added that the two countries will officially meet on Saturday for a “very big meeting.”
Does Texas have a constitutional right to defy Supreme Court on protecting its border?
Trump has repeatedly warned that Iran should acquiesce to the US or they will suffer economic and military retaliation.
"I think everybody agrees that doing a deal would be preferable to doing the obvious," continued Trump.
Recently, Trump went as far as threatening Iran with “bombing” if their nuclear development programs continue.
Such bombing could be imminent, as the US military is reinforcing its firepower in the Middle East by relocating more Naval strike groups to the area.
Iran, however, seemed undeterred. Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei said Iran would respond to any forceful US action in kind.
