Trump Ready To Meet With Iran's Rouhani After Sacking National Security Adviser by dermmy(m): 7:12am On Sep 11, 2019 |
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on Tuesday that President Donald Trump could meet with Iranian President Hassan Rouhani at the upcoming United Nations meeting, with “no preconditions.” Pompeo made the comments at a news briefing to unveil new sanctions on groups including Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. “He is prepared to meet with no preconditions,” Pompeo said when asked about the possibility of a meeting at the U.N. General Assembly later this month, echoing comments Trump made on Monday. The Trump administration is executing what it calls a “maximum-pressure” campaign to curtail any work by Iran toward developing nuclear weapons, using diplomatic and economic measures such as sanctions. Trump’s abrupt firing of his national security adviser, John Bolton, indicates that the pressure strategy is failing, an adviser to Rouhani wrote in a tweet on Tuesday. Rouhani has said Iran, which denies seeking nuclear weapons, would not talk to the United States until Washington lifted the sanctions it had reimposed on Tehran after pulling out of a 2015 nuclear deal. But the White House has held firm on not conducting talks with preset conditions.

Obama gave Trump the best political platform to perform but he choose people like Bolton who're puppets of NRA and defense contractors to advise him. With American debt exceeding $22trn and cost of energy increasing, America can't afford any more wars. That's why he had to sack Bolton, bring Iran to negotiating table so that they can flood the international market with crude. Without that, crude is bound to go back to $80 per barrel or even more. Cheap energy is what American companies need now to combat the onslaught from their Chinese counterparts whose government is purposely devaluing the yuan to ensure companies don't leave in the wake of the new tariffs 3 Likes |

US should do away with her pride by removing all sanctions the pressure strategy isn't producing its desired result. Sanction has become a toy in the hands of America, they would even sanction any country that gets sophisticated weapons from Russia. Trump does not want to appear as the loser that's why he keeps insisting on talks without preconditions. It's now glaring that the Iranians are stubborn and i know Trump is regretting his decisions. Iran has a good card to play and it is playing it well, more increase in centrifuges means it is inching towards getting nuclear weapons and the truth is US won't do anything. That is what you get when you allow a foreign country like Isreal to dictate your foreign policy. 2 Likes 1 Share |

This has nothing to do with Bolton's sack, Trump has always said he is willing to meet with Rouhani to negotiate a new deal 1 Like |

garetz: Do you listen to news at all? Even Trump confirmed that they had disagreement over some issues and he doesn't like Bolton's policies. Or you think Trump just sacked him for no reason? Check this https://www.nairaland.com/5413375/trump-discussed-easing-iran-sanctions |

garetz: Lol. And you think Trump would tell the whole world he disagreed with Bolton over Iran and NK. He wouldn't want the world to see that US is losing the fight against Iran and NK in its pressure campaign against the two countries but we are not fooled they actually disagreed over Iran and North Korea. The pressure campaign against Iran is even pushing Iran towards getting nukes and the talks and meeting with NK has not yeilded any fruitful result, Kim has said he wants a mutual concession and i think Trump has seen the truth. The Iranians are stubborn and keep demanding US lift sanction, Kim wants concessions from US too. You can see that the Iran and NK issue looks similar Iran wants sanctions to be lifted while NK also wants some sanctions to be lifted too. US has proved to be an untrusted power over the decades, look at what they did to Ghaddaffi they made him gave up Libya's nuclear ambition and promised him they won't embark on regime change which they later did. From what i have seen so far Trump wants to negotiate but Bolton had been hindering that. Infact Mike Pompeo should tread carefully else what befell Bolton would befall him. |

dermmy:All these things you are saying is just assumptions and conjecture. Until there is any evidence that it had anything to do with Iran, that's what it will remain. The facts available from everybody involved in the matter is that it had nothing to do with Iran 1 Like |
