President Donald Trump announced that the U.S. will be holding direct talks with Iran regarding its nuclear program. He warned Iran of “great danger” if the talks fail to persuade them to abandon their nuclear weapons program. Trump stated that the talks would commence on Saturday, emphasizing that Tehran cannot obtain nuclear weapons. He also mentioned that a deal would be preferable over military action.
This decision comes after Trump sent a letter to Iran’s supreme leader calling for negotiations. Iran had previously rejected direct negotiations with Trump while leaving open the possibility of indirect discussions with the U.S. Trump has consistently urged Iran to give up its nuclear program or face potential military action.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu supported Trump’s diplomatic efforts and goal of preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. They discussed various issues including tariffs, Iran’s nuclear program, and the Israel-Hamas war during Netanyahu’s visit to the White House.
Trump withdrew the U.S. from the Iran nuclear deal in 2015 and is now seeking a different, potentially stronger agreement. He has also put pressure on Israel to address the trade deficit with the U.S. and may use tariffs as leverage to achieve concessions.
The tariffs imposed by Trump could have a significant economic impact on Israel, potentially costing billions in exports and thousands of jobs. The trade relationship between the U.S. and Israel is essential, especially in high-tech industries. Israel has taken steps to remove tariffs on U.S. goods but was still affected by the recent tariffs imposed by the U.S.
