High-Stakes Negotiations: Trump Indirectly Involved in U.S.-Iran Nuclear Talks

U.S. President Donald Trump indicated on Monday that he will be indirectly involved in crucial negotiations between the United States and Iran regarding Tehran's nuclear program. These discussions, scheduled to commence on Tuesday in Geneva, could shape future diplomatic relations. Trump expressed belief that Iran is inclined towards making a deal.

As the talks approach, tensions escalate, with the United States deploying a second aircraft carrier to the Middle East, a move signaling readiness for a potential military operation should negotiations falter. According to U.S. officials, preparations are in place for an extended military campaign if necessary.

Trump asserted that Iran is motivated to negotiate to avoid severe consequences, a sentiment reinforced by last summer's U.S. bombing of Iranian nuclear sites. Meanwhile, Iran's civil defense organization conducted a chemical defense exercise in a major energy hub in southern Iran, bolstering readiness for any incidents.
