Donald Trump has agreed to let Iran retain its civilian nuclear program in a major concession as the two sides say they are closer than ever to reaching a peace deal, with Iran wanting it done in two parts.
A senior White House official said: ‘We’re not bothered at all by the idea of civilian power plants in Iran; what we’re bothered by is the type of infrastructure that would allow them to jump from civilian power generation to nuclear weapons development.’
The official pointed to how the United Arab Emirates has a civilian nuclear power program that could not be turned into a bomb-making operation.
Meanwhile, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi confirmed the deal is in its final stages, while laying out what they want out of Washington.
That includes Israel‘s withdrawal from Lebanon and Tehran’s continued control over a reopened Strait of Hormuz and a ‘service fee’ for commercial ships.
Araghchi added that he wants a two-part pact to end the war. Part one would be a memorandum of understanding followed by a lasting peace deal build on the nuclear issue and the lifting of sanctions.
‘The nuclear issue has been left for the second round and a final agreement,’ he said on state television.
The revelation indicates that the Trump administration has given Iran the green light to hold onto its civilian nuclear power plants as long as those sites cannot be used to create a nuclear weapon.
What safeguards would be put in place to prevent Iran from scaling up its nuclear power plants to bomb-making facilities is unclear, but any steps taken by the Islamic Republic to make a nuclear weapon would derail any potential deal.
Trump has long stressed that any end to the war would be predicated on Iran giving up its nuclear capabilities, particularly its uranium enrichment labs that US intelligence claims can make weapons-grade fuel.
The MOU mandates that Iran’s current stockpile of nuclear material be destroyed on-site and then taken out of the country. Trump has said that only the US and China can dig up the deeply buried fissile material.
Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said on Friday that the ‘final text’ of a peace deal between the US and Iran ‘has been reached.’
> The deal is far from finalized but Trump’s reported ’concessions’ suggest that he is desperate to get out of a war he now knows he cannot win. The one major obstacle is Israel. Will Trump abandon Netanyahu, or do the Israelis have too much dirt on Trump in the form of compromising photos and videos from Jeffrey Epstein?
The more swill I read, the more I laugh. How many different swills are there in the above statement?
When will this site show us “proof” of nuclear weapons? The truth is out there…
Fool me once shame on you, fool me 39 times rarotflmfao.
The nuke industry is soooo phony, where certain investors (families) make trillions on a fake nuke industry , both here and Iran. There are no nuke weapons. Always been a myth and still is.
If a truce is reached and it includes Mordor staying out of Lebanon, you can bet your teeth that the rabid jews will whip out one doozy of a false flag in the Jewnited States and pin it on Iran to get the Americunt imbeciles frothed up into another lather of wildly misplaced fury…just like 9/11…
IF nukes exist, and I haven’t really looked into it enough, then Iran would be wise to get their hands on as many as they can since the jew demons will never stop trying to destroy them steal everything they can.
and what about Israel’s nuclear arsenal? Iran would be walking into a trap if there is no agreement to rid Israel of its nuclear arsenal.
HOPE SATANJAHU DOES A JF KEJNNEDY ON TRUMP !
