The US and Israel are preparing to strike Iran's nuclear program

The Daily Mail reported that the United States and Israel are preparing for a military strike against Iran's nuclear program. According to the source, this decision is being discussed in political, military and diplomatic circles.

Possibility of an attack and diplomatic relations

Sources in the Israeli government say that the time for Tehran to stop its work on creating nuclear weapons has long passed. According to them, now is the most opportune time and time to take decisive military measures.

Diplomatic sources say that for Israel, the return of Donald Trump to the presidency of the United States is the best opportunity to resolve the Iranian problem. According to the sources:
"There is no better opportunity than this."

Iran's nuclear program and international reactions

The Iranian government has repeatedly stated that it has no intention of creating nuclear weapons. However, according to the IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency), the country has uranium enriched to 60 percent, which, if enriched to 90 percent, could be enough to create 6 nuclear bombs.

The situation with Iran's nuclear program became even more tense after the US withdrew from the nuclear deal in 2018. Trump pursued a policy of maximum pressure on Iran before the end of his term. On February 4, 2024, he sent a letter to Iran demanding that it conclude a new nuclear deal within two months.

"We cannot allow them to get nuclear weapons. I would prefer a peace deal, but another option would solve the problem," Trump said.

Position of the Persian Gulf States and Iran's Response

The Persian Gulf states, which are partners of the United States, do not intend to participate in this military operation. In response, Iran has put its missiles on standby to repel possible attacks.

In late March, Iran refused to hold direct negotiations with the United States on its nuclear program. President Masoud Pizishian expressed his attitude in this regard as follows:
"Iran has never shied away from negotiations. The United States has not fulfilled its previous obligations, including by withdrawing from the nuclear deal in 2018, and has lost international trust."

The United States and Israel are seriously considering the possibility of taking military action against Iran's nuclear program. However, such an attack could have serious consequences for international relations and regional security. Absence of the Persian Gulf states, Iran's military preparations and refusal to negotiate - further complicate the situation. Follow “Zamin” news on “Telegram”
