Summary

Trump recently sent a letter to Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei proposing nuclear negotiations, which Khamenei rejected, condemning "bullying governments."

Trump warned that alternatives to talks would be military action. Iran's UN mission later indicated willingness for limited discussions about "militarization" but refused "dismantlement" of its program.

Senator Graham advocates eliminating Iran's nuclear weapons capability, while Iran insists its program is peaceful despite recent threats and increased uranium production.

Well yeah, there was a deal on nuclear disarmament until Trump tore it up. Not surprising they're not interested in going through all that again just so he can back out of it for a second time as soon as he wants to look tough.

Completely true. Here’s a guy who’s currently bashing the North American trade agreement that was signed under his own first administration. Simply can’t be trusted to sign a car rental contract, let alone an international agreement.

Why would anyone give a shit about negotiating with a government that change course 180 degrees on a whim, and recently launched a surprise fucking drone strike on Iran even while they were cooperating militarily?

Any negotiated promise or commitment from the US would be literally worthless. They'd just forget in a week anyway.

Don't trust Trump, keep building your nuclear arsenal, secretly if you have to. Ukraine need their nukes, so does Poland, Germany and etc. It is the only way left to keep the civilian population safe from US and their best friend Russia.

Why the actual fuck would Iran give up nukes right after Ukraine was shown to have given theirs up for nothing? NK has them and Trump sends love letters, as an American, nobody should trust us for at least 5 years and that's with significant legal remedies in place.
