While tension increases, and the Americans are anxiously considering the anticipation of another major U.S. war in the mediate East, Trump administration is in contact with the Iranian government, discussing a possible gathering this week between Iranian abroad Minister Abbas Araghchi and U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff, reports Axios, citing "four sources informed in this case".



The paper besides claims, That Trump officials have assured allies in the mediate East that the administration is not planning to join the war, unless Americans will become targets – a clear red line that encourages Israel to find a way to drag Iran through it or to complete fabricate the incident, as Israel did in the celebrated "Lavon affair"in 1954. The arabian diplomat in deep contact with Iran says that the red line is already very visible in Tehran: "The Iranians are very careful so far not to do anything that could drive the US to engage".

After these reports Iran on Monday night reduced the rate of dense bombing of Israel, after successive nights of deadly, devastating attacks that demonstrated the strength of Iranian hypersonic missiles. The next catch is that on Tuesday morning Iran struck Israel with a barrage in daylight – although it was reportedly a tiny amount, possibly only 20 rounds. Of course, there is nothing modest about it if you happen to be in 1 of the areas of influence:

Earlier on Monday, Israel hit various targets in Iran, including the state tv network IRIB on broadcast (although it rapidly resumed broadcasting with the same host). Israeli Defence Forces besides claimed that killed a high-ranking Iranian generalwho himself replaced another general murdered at the beginning of the war by Israel.

Axios reports are standing in a bright contrast with a stream of militant rhetoric emanating from Trump's mouth, along with possibly ominous movements of American military assets. On Monday Trump utilizing social media said "Everyone should evacuate from Tehran immediately!". besides yesterday Fox News reported that group of carriers commanded by USS Nimitz It's headed for the mediate East. from the South China Sea, where he will join the already stationed strike group USS Carl Vinson. At the same time a large number of people were stationed in Europe military tanking aircraft.

Even if reports of American diplomatic activities are true, from Iran's perspective, you can trust small or nothing the Trump administration says, and even seemingly peaceful overtures must be judged as a possible maneuver to prepare an unexpected US strike. Finally, Israel started a war with Iran two days before the planned gathering of the US and Iranian delegation in Oman in the sixth circular of talks on a fresh agreement on Iran's atomic programme. Since the Israeli attack Trump repeatedly said he knew it in advance, saying, for example, that "We were well informed of everything" and "I always knew the date.".

This is what 1 of the officials said Axios seeking a fresh meeting

"A gathering with the Iranians is being considered this week....They want to talk. However, we do not know whether they were completely put on their knees to realize that in order to have a country, they had to talk? And assuming they get there, Is there any degree of enrichment [uranu] that you would let them?"

The proposition that Iran is close to getting down on its knees seems fancy, givenThat Iran fired many missiles, the effects of which far exceeded expectations. 20 Israelis were killed and at least 400 injured, and the country besides experienced major hits in government buildings, residential towers and power plants. The main function in these shootings played highly advanced Iranian hypersonic missiles – weapons neither Israel nor the United States have in their arsenal:

The rhetorical question of an anonymous authoritative about whether there is "any amount of enrichment" that the United States would allow, can give a ray of hope at the end of the war initiated by Israel. Iran sees uranium enrichment as a law which it has as a sovereign state and repeatedly reiterated that the complete ban on uranium enrichment is completely excluded. Iran has long been under a spiritual order or "fatwa", prohibiting the improvement of any weapons of mass destruction, and This country has long assured the planet that it has no intention of building atomic weapons – ensuring that American intelligence community confirmed in 2007 and since then has confirmed – recently, in March of that year. Meanwhile, Anti-Iranian hawks have been informing about an impending Iranian atomic bomb for over 3 decades.:

In this main article New York Times 30 years ago, 1 of the high-ranking officials said Iran's "intense efforts" made them have all the essential atomic bomb components within 2 years.

The seed of today's crisis was sown in May 2018 erstwhile Trump withdrew the United States from the atomic agreement, which was negotiated between Iran and various Western governments and signed in 2015 Under this agreement Iran agreed to wide scope of safeguards. These included eliminating average enriched uranium, reducing stocks of low enriched uranium by 98%, limiting future enrichment to 3.67%, reducing centrifuges, subjecting to enhanced external monitoring and making the dense water reactor useless by pour concrete into it. According to the global Atomic Energy AgencyAt the time Trump withdrew, Iran was full in subjection to this.. In consequence to the reimposing of sanctions by the US, Iran began to deviate from the terms of the agreement, seemingly shifting the only lever he had to reconstruct the deal and get out of sanctions that weakened the Iranian economy and caused cruel toll to innocent Iranian citizens.

The 2015 Agreement was so detailed that Trump's quest for a fresh deal puts him in an awkward situation where he must find a way to separate between her from the 1 he repeatedly avenged during the 2016 election campaign, as well as from erstwhile he rejected it. Iranian hawks are pushing for an agreement that completely forbids uranium enrichment. any may take this position with genuine concern, but the most powerful hawks in Israel and America surely accept it with full awareness that Iran will never accept it, helping pave the way for a U.S. war they longed for..

Indeed, shortly after the Israeli war began with Iran, Israel and his U.S. collaborators began to push Trump to engage the American military to fight – against his electoral promises to end the era of endless wars of the United States. Trump doesn't gotta worry about it: The Constitution of the United States gives the right to start a war on Congress.
