TEHRAN – In a memo, Jam-e-Jam discussed what kind of approach President Donald Trump is exploring towards Iran in his second administration.
“President Trump will indeed seek both dialogue and a deal with Iran and a policy of ‘maximum pressure’ against the Islamic Republic,” the newspaper wrote. But the agreement he wants is very different from the one we want. We want an agreement within the framework of the JCPOA. We believe that the text of the JCPOA needs to be slightly modified without changing its core. But the Trump team wants all issues included in a comprehensive agreement, including the nuclear program, our missile capabilities, our position on the Zionist regime and regional policy, and even human rights. Therefore, the Trump administration is concerned that Iran will change its nuclear policy and move towards producing nuclear weapons, and if Iran resists, it may try to apply maximum pressure again. It should be noted that regardless of the Islamic Republic’s actions, once President Trump realizes that his statements are not realistic, he simply changes his tact and withdraws his previous position.
Sob-e-No: Iran’s decisive warning to Europe
In his article, Sob-e-No discussed the Iranian nuclear issue and international tensions. “For the first time in the Geneva negotiations, Iran warned European countries that if the snapback mechanism was triggered, it would not only withdraw from the NPT but also review and change its nuclear doctrine,” the magazine said. The Iranian statement showed that Europe’s threatening policies and rhetoric do not serve as an effective solution to crisis management. In this situation, Europe should seriously reconsider its approach and look for diplomatic solutions and new agreements rather than resorting to pressure measures. Iran has said on numerous occasions that it will only comply with its obligations if other countries fully fulfill their commitments. Therefore, Europe’s decision to use the snapback mechanism could lead to a point of no return in relations between the two countries.
Mr. Etelert: We have to speak directly and forcefully to President Trump.
In an interview with international affairs expert Hassan Beheshtipur, Etelert spoke about Donald Trump’s official return to the White House. “We need to negotiate directly with Mr. Trump,” he said. Certainly, we can welcome negotiations with the United States from a position of strength. The Islamic Republic currently has high potential and special status. Iran’s nuclear industry has developed since President Trump withdrew from the JCPOA. Additionally, Trump’s first White House plan, which advocated a policy of “maximum pressure” against Iran, did not actually produce the desired results. President Trump is ready to negotiate with Iran and is 100% in favor of encouraging Iran to engage in direct dialogue with the United States to provide the necessary space for de-escalation. We must pursue our goals seriously. Now, even if the desired result is not achieved, nothing special will happen and the current situation will continue. The important thing is that we need to come to the negotiating table with a plan and full force, and if the negotiating team is reasonable, we can push our demands onto the negotiating parties.
Doña Ektesad: President Trump and his ambiguous approach to Iran
In her analysis, Doña Ektesad addressed President Trump’s comments on Iran, saying: On his first day back in the White House, the American president made comments on Iran and other major international issues. announced a policy decision. Of course, it had long been expected that on Inauguration Day he would declare extraordinary decisions in relations with other countries, friend or foe. In his statement, he declared some of his policies toward Iran and reiterated his claims of Iranian support for terrorism. He insisted we were back to hold Iran accountable and stop the extraction of oil money to fund what he called terrorist organizations. But last night, in a bizarre move, he sacked anti-Iranian figure Brian Hook. It’s unclear exactly why Trump fired Hook, but he said he and the three others did not align with MAGA’s vision to make America great again. Hook is an adviser to warmongers who supported President Trump’s “maximum pressure” sanctions against Iran during his first term in office.
