TRUMP’S TEAM PLANNING FOR IRAN PEACE TALKS
After three weeks of war, Washington quietly sketches diplomacy—while fighting continues 2-3 more weeks.
US demands: No missile program for 5 years; zero uranium enrichment; decommission bombed nuclear sites; strict oversight; regional arms caps; no proxy funding.
Iran demands: Ceasefire, war won’t resume, compensation.
The trust problem: Hard to negotiate with a president who bombs you mid-talks.
The “wordsmithing” fix: Reparations rebranded as “return of frozen assets.”
Bottom line: US wants Iran’s total surrender. Iran has refused before—and remembers.
