Summary

Trump recently sent a letter to Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei proposing nuclear negotiations, which Khamenei rejected, condemning “bullying governments.”

Trump warned that alternatives to talks would be military action. Iran’s UN mission later indicated willingness for limited discussions about “militarization” but refused “dismantlement” of its program.

Senator Graham advocates eliminating Iran’s nuclear weapons capability, while Iran insists its program is peaceful despite recent threats and increased uranium production.

    Well yeah, there was a deal on nuclear disarmament until Trump tore it up. Not surprising they’re not interested in going through all that again just so he can back out of it for a second time as soon as he wants to look tough.

      Completely true. Here’s a guy who’s currently bashing the North American trade agreement that was signed under his own first administration. Simply can’t be trusted to sign a car rental contract, let alone an international agreement.
