President Donald Trump has informed Iran that it has two months to accept a nuclear deal that halts its ambitions for a nuclear weapon or else the U.S. military will end it for them.
Axios reported that Trump made his deadline clear to the Islamic regime in the letter he sent to Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, although it was not clear from the report whether the countdown began when the letter was delivered or when negotiations with the Trump administration begin.
Trump envoy Steve Witkoff delivered the letter to United Arab Emirates President Mohammed Bin Zayed in Abu Dhabi several days ago.
The following day, an official representing Zayed traveled to Tehran to deliver the letter to Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi.
Khamenei responded by claiming that the U.S. was trying to “deceive the world’s public opinion” and suggesting that negotiations will never happen with the Trump administration.
Iran held negotiations with the Biden administration for years but nothing ever came from it and Iran was able to amass large stockpiles of 60% enriched uranium that can be easily enriched to the 90% uranium that is needed to build a nuclear missile.
