News India Live, Digital Desk: US President Donald Trump has given a statement regarding the ongoing tension with Iran and the possible nuclear deal, which has sparked a new debate in international diplomacy. Trump has claimed that if he wanted, the deal with Iran could be concluded in ‘just a minute’. However, they also throw in a big but, which shows that the story behind the scenes is not as simple as it seems. This statement of Trump has come at a time when a fine line has been drawn between war and peace in the Middle East.
‘We want what is right for us’ Trump’s strict condition
Donald Trump, while speaking to the media at the White House, made it clear that he is in no hurry for an agreement. He said, “We can make a deal in a minute, but I don’t want a deal that’s in name only. I want one that’s right for the security of America and the world.” Trump was referring to the 2015 nuclear deal (JCPOA), which he had canceled during his previous tenure, calling it the ‘worst deal’. Now they are adamant on a new and tougher agreement that also includes restrictions on Iran’s missile program.
‘Unique’ period of tension and talks
On one hand, Trump is talking about an agreement, on the other hand, he is leaving no opportunity to put pressure on Iran. The increased deployment of the US Navy in the Strait of Hormuz and stringent economic sanctions imposed on Iran have forced Tehran to come to the negotiating table. Trump indicated that his policy of ‘Maximum Pressure’ is working. He said that Iran’s economy is now at a point where they will have to take a decision soon.
‘Mixed’ signals from Iran
Reactions are also coming from Iran on this claim of Trump. Diplomatic sources in Tehran say that they are also ready for talks, but America will first have to remove the sanctions which are breaking the back of the people of their country. Iran’s supreme leadership has also made it clear that they will not sign any agreement that violates their sovereign rights. In such a situation, Trump’s ‘one minute’ claim could also be an art of the deal (Art of the Deal).
Will the threat of world war be averted?
The eyes of defense experts around the world are fixed on this possible deal. If a middle path is found between Trump and Iran, it will not only bring down the prices of crude oil, but can also remove the clouds of war looming in the Middle East. However, considering Trump’s ‘unpredictable’ image, it is difficult to say on which side the camel will sit. The coming few weeks will decide whether this ‘one minute’ will turn into reality or whether the fire of tension will flare up further.
