Tehran/Washington. The smell of gunpowder has once again become thick in the Middle East. The ongoing war of words between Iran and America has now reached a dangerous turn of military siege and nuclear diplomacy. Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi bluntly told a global forum in Tehran on Sunday that his country will not step back even an inch from Uranium Enrichment.
This statement of Araghchi has come at a time when America has deployed its powerful aircraft carrier in the Arabian Sea. USS Abraham Lincoln Have laid siege to Iran by deploying. Iran has made it clear that it will stick to its terms even in the event of war.
‘Table talk’ in Oman and ‘show of strength’ in Arabian Sea
Surprisingly, on one hand, representatives of America and Iran are sitting at the negotiating table in Oman, while on the other hand, military deployment in the sea is increasing.
Wall of Disbelief: An official meeting between the two countries took place in Oman last Friday. This is the first attempt after the fierce 12-day war between Israel and Iran in June 2025.
Iran’s condition: According to Araghchi, it is difficult to trust Washington. Iran will adopt a flexible stance on its nuclear program only if the stringent economic sanctions imposed on it are removed.
‘The power of saying no is our real atomic bomb’
Araghchi hit back sharply at Western countries’ accusations against Iran for making nuclear weapons. He said, “They are afraid of our nuclear bomb, even though we are not making the bomb. The power to say ‘No’ to the superpowers is Iran’s real nuclear weapon.” At the same time, Israel’s Foreign Minister Gideon Saar has termed Iran’s steadfast attitude as an ‘open threat’ to global peace.
Trump’s ‘peace’ policy and new US sanctions
Along with talks, America has also intensified its policy of pressure.
USS Abraham Lincoln Visit: US negotiators Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner visited the warship on Saturday. He reiterated Trump’s policy of ‘Peace through Strength’.
Shipping restrictions: Washington has recently imposed new sanctions on shipping companies related to Iran’s oil exports, due to which Tehran’s economic back is on the verge of breaking.
Iran is also surrounded on the domestic front
Amid the diplomatic tension, the situation inside Iran is also not normal. There have been reports of thousands of deaths so far in the protests that have been going on since last December. Amidst military pressure, economic sanctions and internal rebellion, the world’s eyes are now on the Oman talks. Whether these talks will reach any agreement or the foundation of another major war in the Middle East is being laid, only time will decide.
