Shafaq News- Washington
The White House on
Tuesday reaffirmed that the United States will not permit Iran to enrich
uranium, ahead of nuclear talks set for February 26 in Geneva.
A senior US administration
official told Shafaq News that President Donald Trump remains committed to
preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons or retaining the capacity to
produce them.
On February 19, US
President Donald Trump gave Iran 15 days to reach what he called a “meaningful
deal,” warning of consequences if talks fail, while Iranian officials
reiterated their right to continue uranium enrichment. The New York Times
reported that Trump is weighing military options should diplomacy
collapse, including potential strikes on Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps
bases, nuclear facilities, and ballistic missile infrastructure.
For Shafaq News,
Mostafa Hashem, Washington D.C.
