Trump on Iran: ‘They Might Be Tapping Us Along – They Can’t Have a Nuclear Weapon’

U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday reiterated that he won’t allow the Iranian regime to acquire nuclear weapons, while expressing dissatisfaction with the pace of the nuclear talks that began last Saturday. According to Axios, the next round of talks will be held in Rome, following an American initiative to change the venue. However, Kasra Aarabi, an Iran expert at the think tank United Against Nuclear Iran, reported that Iran has also been pushing to involve Italy in the talks. “A source tells me the Islamic Republic of Iran has been pushing for Italy’s involvement in negotiations for some time now to diminish the E3’s (UK, Germany & France) active role in talks. Another tells me Tehran has calculated [that] E3 will activate snapback by June/July,” Aarabi wrote on X.
