Vance says US negotiating toward ‘complete cessation’ of Iran’s nuclear program

Vice president JD Vance inspected the next round of American -Iranian nuclear talks on Wednesday, saying that President Donald Trump would be “open” to sit with Chinese and Russian officials in the future to prevent spread.

US and Iranian officials are scheduled to take a fourth round of nuclear talks in Amman in the coming days. Trump will visit the Middle East countries in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates next week.

At the Munich leaders meeting in Washington, DC, on Wednesday, the former German ambassador to the United States asked Wolfgang Eachger, and Vans said whether the administration “will go to any zero enrichment” by Tehran and noticed the “Gaza issue” that was not resolved.

Trump raises a “very big advertisement” before the Middle East trip, Carney says he is on the edge of my seat.

Vans “two major issues” were martyred with the joint comprehensive action plan (JCPOA), the official name of the Iranian nuclear deal guaranteed in 2015 during the Obama administration.

Trump said that the defective deal did not prevent Iran from building an atomic bomb. On Wednesday, the Vice President added that the agreement of former President Barack Obama had an “incredibly weak” application regarding inspections, and therefore, he did not believe that he had already served the function of preventing the Iranians from reaching nuclear weapons. ”

Second, Vans said that the Trump administration believes that there are some elements of the Iranian nuclear program that was “preserved” in fact under JCPOA.

“Yes, there were no nuclear weapons. Iran does not have a nuclear weapon,” Vans said, on the pretext that the deal “allowed Iran to stay on the path of slipping this towards a nuclear weapon if it turned the key and pressure.”

“We believe that there is a deal here that would reintegrate Iran into the global economy,” Vans said before the talks. “This will be really good for the Iranian people, but it will lead to a complete stopping of any opportunity that they can get a nuclear weapon. This is what we negotiate. As the president said, this is the option A.”

If the A option is “very good for the Iranian people,” VANCE offered this B option “very bad.”

“It is very bad for everyone,” said

Trump told NBC in an interview broadcast on Sunday that he would only accept the “complete dismantling” of the Iranian nuclear program.

The Vice President said on Wednesday that the broader goal of the Trump administration is to prevent nuclear spread, noting that he believes that the president would “be open” to sit with China and Russia on the road.

“If Iran gets a nuclear weapon, that is, a country after that gets a nuclear weapon, and then when this country gets a nuclear weapon, any country after that? We really care not only to Iran, but about the nuclear spread.” “The president hates nuclear spread. I hate the nuclear spread. I think the president will be very open to sitting with the Russians and Chinese and say,“ Look, let’s get this thing in a much better place. Let’s reduce the number of nuclear weapons written in the world. ” It is clear that this is not a conversation for tomorrow.

“But there is no way to reach that conversation if you allow multiple systems around the world to enter this enemy to a nuclear weapon,” Vans added. “We really believe that if Domino fell Iran, you will see nuclear spread throughout the Middle East. This is very bad for us. It’s very bad for our friends. This is something we don’t think can happen.”

As for the negotiations with Iran, Vans gave a degree of “so far, very good”, thanking the mediators, including the Omanis, to ensure that the talks are “on the right path.”

“But this will end somewhere, and it will end either in Iran eliminating their nuclear program – their nuclear weapons program,” Vans said. “They can have a civil nuclear force. Well. Don’t mind it. But allow me to ask this primary question – which system in the world has civilian nuclear energy and enrichment without obtaining a nuclear weapon? And the answer is not anyone.”

“So our suggestion is very simple. Yes, we do not care if people want nuclear energy. We are well. But you cannot have a kind of enrichment program that allows you to reach a nuclear weapon. This is where we draw the line.”

Trump announced on Tuesday that the US military, which has been bombing the Houthis, backed by Iran since March 15 to defend freedom of navigation, will stop its strikes on the terrorist terrorist group, which has been informed that it “does not want to fight” anymore. The Houthis claimed responsibility for a missile launched from Yemen, which was struck near the main station of the Israeli airport at the end of last week, hours before the Israeli cabinet voted to expand the fighting in Gaza.

From the Oval Office on Tuesday, Trump also disturbed a “very big advertisement” that happened before his journey in the Middle East, but he refused to clarify the issue, as well as saying, “It was not necessarily about trade.”
