Trump proposes nuclear weapons deal with Iran

1. ***The Telegraph reports:***

   Donald Trump has said negotiations to prevent [Iran’s development of nuclear weapons](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2025/02/04/iran-charges-team-scientists-with-developing-atomic-bomb/) were down to their “final moments” after he wrote to the country’s leader on Friday.

   The US president claims to have sent a letter to Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran’s Supreme Leader, seeking a new deal with Tehran to restrain its rapidly advancing nuclear program.

   It is the first step taken by Mr Trump in his second presidential term to sound out his Iranian counterpart to see if a new deal is possible, after pulling the US out of the previous agreement during his first term.

   “I hope you’re going to negotiate because it’s going to be a lot better for Iran and I think they want to get that letter,” Mr Trump told Fox Business News.

   “The other alternative is we have to do something because you can’t let [Iran] have a nuclear weapon.

   “I’ve written them a letter, saying I hope you’re going to negotiate because if we have to go in militarily it’s going to be a terrible thing for them,” Mr Trump added.

   “You can’t let them [have a nuclear weapon](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2025/01/31/iran-nuclear-warhead-europe-revolutionary-guard-north-korea/).”

2. Oh so now he suddenly wants a deal? He tore up the old one and that’s why Iran is on the brink of building nuclear weapons right now.

   And if it happens, in a few years he’ll probably ask “who the hell signed this terrible deal” and tear it up again, just like the USMCA.

   He is not a serious man.

3. He threw out the last one. On top of that, if there’s any country he doesn’t have an ounce of goodwill with, it’s Iran. He put most of the current sanctions on them and assassinated one of their generals.

4. My understanding is they would never make a deal because US can’t be trusted to abide by any deals.

5. What kind of country will refuse to have nukes after what happened in Ukraine?

6. Took decades to bring them to the table for a deal and he’s destroyed that within his first term. Is he going to threaten them to sign a deal?

7. I thought he wanted to topple down the regime….

8. Trump… *rolls dice* threatens war with… *rolls dice* Lithuania

   Trump… *rolls dice* wants to build a wall… *rolls dice* in New Zealand

   Trump… *rolls dice* proposes 100% tariffs against… *rolls dice* California

9. I bet he’ll threaten them with tariffs. That seems to be his only idea.

10. Ya im not sure what the gameplan is. An invasion isnt on the table and anything less than absolute carnage- which involves killing millions of people and burning the country to its core- the regime will likely be able to complete a few nukes that can actually reach the states (or at the very least destroy Isreal/other US allies in the region).

    The logistics of an invasion in Iran never really made sense. even without nukes, they have enough missiles to overwhelm a small country like Israel and cause catastrophic damage. It would be a last resort and a proverbial middle finger as they die, but they could cause havoc.

    More to the point, in the last decade or so, we’ve seen 2 countries absolutely devastated after giving up nukes (Ukraine/Libya). The threat to the Kohameni regime here from Trump will sound something like “Keep your nuclear program and we’ll kill you or give it up, and we’ll kill you…your choice”.

11. War hawks upset yest again

    When are people gonna realize hostility and war only puts us back

12. Trump will entertain a deal but make an aerial war campaign eventually I suspect after Russia crushes Ukraine and gets what it wants and after he leaves NATO. It would make sense for him to go in order which I suspect Putin is telling him to do

    First purge the “deep state” while also ending all aid for Ukraine thus allowing Russia to crush the rest as despite what people think here the EU is weak and cannot and will do anything. Then when Russia consolidates itself a deal was made between them and the Israelis for a US war on Iran which would be purely aerial and likely see the Iranian government overthrown. That will start the global faminine and supply chain shock the Accelerationist Dark Enlightenment guys want to cull the non white worlds population. From there Trump will make moves on Canada and Greenland and succeed and end NATO and finally he will wage a mutually destructive war against China.

13. And just about 5 hours ago I was thinking today couldn’t get any dumber. Boy, let me tell you, I was WRONG.

14. You cannot make this shit up!

15. He’s saying this on behalf of Putin. More and more looking like Putin owns him.
