The U. S. President, Donald Trump, recently mentioned he would have a part in the upcoming discussions between the U. S. and Iran. These talks are scheduled to start soon in Geneva and focus on Iran's nuclear program. Trump clarified that his involvement would be indirect, but he still thinks it's crucial.
Tensions are high right now. The U. S. has sent another aircraft carrier to the Middle East. Military leaders are getting ready for a possible long-term conflict if the talks don't work out. Trump believes Iran wants to negotiate this time, but he's not sure if they're ready to make a deal.
Last summer, the U. S. bombed Iranian nuclear sites after talks stalled. The U. S. wanted Iran to stop enriching uranium on its own soil. Iran sees this as a way to create nuclear weapons. Before the strikes, negotiations had stopped because of this disagreement.
Meanwhile, Iran is preparing for any potential threats. They held a chemical defense drill in a major energy zone. This shows they're taking precautions.
Trump thinks Iran learned from past mistakes. He believes they don't want to face the consequences of not making a deal. But will this be enough to reach an agreement? Only time will tell.
