Fresh nuclear talks between the United States and Iran are set to take place this weekend, with Israel and the U.S. viewing Iran as a threat due to its nuclear aspirations. Iran faces a choice between giving up its nuclear ambitions or risking attack from Israel and the U.S. While Iran denies seeking nuclear weapons, officials have hinted that this could change if attacked.
President Donald Trump announced the talks, but there is confusion over whether they will be direct or indirect negotiations. Indirect talks are seen as a starting point to bridge communication gaps. The U.S. has imposed new sanctions on Iran and has threatened military action if negotiations fail.
The talks come after Trump withdrew the U.S. from the 2015 nuclear deal with Iran, which was meant to curb Iran’s nuclear program in exchange for sanctions relief. Iran has since increased uranium enrichment levels, causing concern among international agencies.
The weakening of Iran’s allies in the Middle East, including Hamas and Hezbollah, has shifted the dynamics of the region. Former intelligence officials believe that the U.S. will demand Iran give up its entire nuclear program, while experts note that war is not the only alternative if negotiations fail.
Both sides will use the talks to assess each other’s intentions, but time is of the essence as some believe the window for military action against Iran’s nuclear sites is closing.
