Iran nuclear talks

First and foremost, Mr. President, continue your efforts to bring home all 59 of our hostages, alive and all at once. This won’t happen without your pressure.

These statements were supposed to be delivered by the Iranian foreign minister as part of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace think tank’s conference.

Iran told the US in talks it was ready to accept some limits on its uranium enrichment but needed watertight guarantees Trump wouldn't ditch another nuclear pact.

Sources: Simply destroying Iran’s Fordow nuke facility 'worthless,' diluting uranium gains limited time.

Limiting Iran’s uranium enrichment to the same levels as 2015 would require greater concessions from Tehran as the country now possesses 13,355 advanced centrifuges.

An agreement with Iran will not be worth the paper it is written on, and a quick win for US foreign policy could spell long-term doom for the world.

The flow of support for the talks is clear. Countries in the region want peace and stability. They want the talks to move to new stages.

In a joint statement issued after talks with Iran in Beijing, China and Russia said they welcomed Iran's reiteration that its nuclear program was exclusively for peaceful purposes.

Keeping Israel strong is in America’s interest because the Jewish state is the US’s only reliable regional ally, creating opportunities to advance US interests.

If diplomacy is to be Trump's chosen path, Netanyahu will push to ensure it is not another drawn-out process that buys Iran more time.
