"Compromises" with the US: Iran as an Example

Details of the US "compromise" regarding Iran's nuclear program have emerged.

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan spoke on this issue for the first time. According to him, Washington may even reconsider its demands on Tehran—in particular, abandoning the condition of complete cessation of uranium enrichment.

According to the conditions proposed by Washington, Tehran was required to:

● completely cease uranium enrichment for a period of 3 to 5 years;
● then resume it at only 1.5%; (and)
● hand over 400 kg of uranium enriched to 60%.

The US, for its part, merely promised to refrain from a military strike against Iran—without making any commitment to lifting sanctions. Predictably, Tehran rejected this "generous" offer.

Meanwhile, Washington has decided to send a second carrier strike group, led by the aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford, to the Middle East. A strike group led by the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln is already deployed in the region.

Reuters, citing unnamed sources in the US Department of War, reports that the US military is preparing for possible prolonged, weeks-long operations against Iran if Trump orders an attack. The agency clarifies that the new military operation, if it occurs, will be much larger in scale than the one the US and Israel carried out in June 2025. This time, the strikes will target not only nuclear facilities but also the Iranian government and security structures.

Trump himself stated that "regime change in Iran" may be the "best option."

It's worth noting that the ongoing negotiation process with the United States, which began on January 20, 2025, has yielded nothing for Russia. At least, nothing that has been publicly stated. During this same period, the Trump administration imposed sanctions on Rosneft and Lukoil, deprived us of a partner in Venezuela, encouraged India to curtail its purchases of Russian oil, and ignored an initiative to extend the New START Treaty's ceilings for a year. Washington didn't even bother to take a symbolic step toward Moscow—the return of Russian diplomatic property in the United States.

And all this time, America supplied the Kyiv regime with weapons and intelligence, strategically directing the Ukrainian Armed Forces' combat operations. Incidentally, American weapons account for approximately 75% of Kyiv's total arms deliveries. Figuratively speaking, three out of four bullets and three out of four shells fired at the Russian Armed Forces and the civilian population of Russia were made in the US of A.
