“Big Decision Ahead”: Donald Trump Calls Iran ‘Very Difficult’ as Nuclear Talks Enter Crucial Phase
As tensions simmer in the Middle East, former US President Donald Trump has once again brought global attention to America’s ongoing nuclear negotiations with Iran — describing Tehran as “very difficult” and “very dangerous.”
As tensions simmer in the Middle East, former US President Donald Trump has once again brought global attention to America’s ongoing nuclear negotiations with Iran — describing Tehran as “very difficult” and “very dangerous.”
Speaking at a gathering in Texas on Friday, Trump made it clear that Washington is at a crossroads.
“We have a big decision to make. Not easy. We have a very big decision to make,” he said, underlining the seriousness of the moment.
Talks Continue, But Trust Is Thin
The third round of negotiations between the United States and Iran took place in Geneva on Thursday, with another round scheduled soon. The talks aim to find common ground over Iran’s nuclear program — an issue that has shaped global diplomacy for years.
However, Trump signaled frustration with the pace and tone of the discussions.
“We’re not exactly happy with the way they’re negotiating. They cannot have nuclear weapons,” he told reporters.
While reaffirming that Iran must not be allowed to possess nuclear weapons, Trump emphasized that any agreement must be “meaningful” — not symbolic or temporary.
Military Pressure vs. Peaceful Resolution
In his speech, Trump also referenced past US military actions, including strikes carried out using B2 bombers. Despite highlighting America’s military strength, he made it clear that force is not his first choice.
“I’d rather do it the peaceful way,” he said, though repeating that Iranian leadership has been “very difficult.”
This dual message — strength combined with a preference for diplomacy — reflects the delicate balancing act facing US policymakers.
Rising Regional Tensions
The renewed talks come at a time of heightened military presence in the Middle East. The US has increased its build-up in the region, and several countries have advised their citizens to leave Iran amid fears of potential escalation.
Behind closed doors, diplomats are working to prevent the situation from spiraling into conflict. Publicly, however, the rhetoric remains firm.
Trump also mentioned speaking with key political figures, including Senator Ted Cruz, reinforcing the seriousness of internal discussions within Washington.
A Pivotal Moment
At its core, this moment is about more than negotiations. It is about trust, security, and the future stability of the region.
Trump acknowledged that no final decision has been made yet.
“We haven’t made a final decision… We’ll see how it all works.”
For now, the world watches as the United States and Iran continue their diplomatic dance — one shaped by history, power, and the constant hope that dialogue can prevail over confrontation.
