Trump: We don’t want to use military force, but sometimes it’s necessary

Trump added: “We haven’t made a final decision yet. We’re not entirely happy with the way they’re negotiating. We’ll see how it goes.” Asked whether the attack would lead to immediate regime change in Iran, the US president said: “Nobody knows, maybe it will, maybe it won’t. It would be nice if we could do it without an army, but sometimes it’s necessary. We have the best army in the world.”

Yesterday’s round of talks in Geneva ended with optimistic statements from the US, Iran and Oman; it was called “the most serious negotiation round to date.”

Oman’s Foreign Minister Sayyid Badr al-Busaidi said that after the completion of talks in Switzerland, the parties will hold consultations in their capitals, followed by technical discussions on resuming negotiations in Vienna.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi also announced “good progress” in the indirect talks. It is reported that during the negotiations, Iran stated its categorical refusal to hand over the uranium at the disposal of the ayatollah regime and destroy nuclear facilities. Araqchi stressed that “Iran has every right to enrich uranium.” The head of the Iranian Foreign Ministry said that the round of negotiations held in Geneva was “one of the most serious.”

Meanwhile, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said that Iran will not possess nuclear weapons, as Iranian spiritual leader Ali Khamenei promised so, Al-Sharq al-Awsat reports. “The spiritual leader of our people cannot lie,” Pezeshkian said on Iranian state television. “If he declares that we will not have nuclear weapons, then we will not have them. Even if I would like to do this, I cannot – because of my beliefs.”
