Not today, Mohammed.
If this is true, Trump is a magician and is quite possibly the greatest POTUS ever.
Somehow there are doubts that the Iranians will hand over all the enriched uranium.
Hopefully the blockade remains in place until turned over.
Yeah, they will surrender it all (except for that bit they’ve taken elsewhere). Until they can enrich or buy more, of course. Perhaps they already have a deal with Russia, China or Pakistan.
These are Muslims we're dealing with. They don't have a good track record of honoring their agreements.
I’ll take a wait and see...
Why would China or Pakistan want an nuclear armed Iran?
Pakistan is in range, and they’ve had border clashes.
China just wants the ME stable.
Russia, maybe.
I view this as a “distrust and verify” situation.
taquiya or however it is spelled...is worrisome
Go get ‘em Trump!!!
Great, now once it’s verified we’ll happily lift the blockade, not a moment sooner; you understand
It’s quite possible Trump got someone to agree.
Is that someone in charge? I doubt it since I doubt anyone is in charge.
It’s also possible Trump said it knowing it’s not true to both cause internal division and to generate international support for the US effort. If so I’d expect more success on the first.
The steps to verify are being worked out.
Trump demands VERIFICATION!!!
Iran is a country twice the size of Texas.
Handing over some of the enriched uranium while hiding most of it, is easy to do. The U.S. and those that wish to partake in the yellow-cake hunt, will never find what the Iranians want to keep for themselves for when the time comes to proceed with building the bomb. As large as Iran is, it’s likely that Iran is already trying to build the bomb with the uranium still in their hands, and nobody will be able to find them.
Your doubts are fair. And it will be a b**** kitty to try to go get it. Not that they weren’t going to try
Bet the Chinese put a gun to their head.
It helps we know how much they have.
Not sure how long it takes to enrich 440kg.
Can’t find this news on any news site.
Ohh. OK Sparky.🤣
