Iran on Edge as Trump’s Deadline Nears, Strike Could Begin as Early as Today or Tomorrow

Washington: America has accumulated huge naval and military power in the Middle East.Two carrier groups have been reached yet Iran is showing no major inclination on its nuclear program. Trump's Special Envoy Steve Witkoff said on Fox News that Trump is not disappointed because there are many options, but he wants to understand why Tehran is not coming to talks despite such heavy pressure. Witkoff said, "The President is wondering why, in the face of such power, Iran is not saying, 'We do not want to make weapons.'" Trump himself is saying why Iran is not "capitulating," why it is not surrendering completely.

Former CIA officer claims: attack could start from Monday or Tuesday?

Former CIA officer John Kiriakou has made a big claim in a podcast. He says that Trump may have given a deadline of 10-15 days, but in reality the decision has been taken. America can attack Iran from Monday or Tuesday. He said that one of his friends (who had recently visited the White House) said that preparations for the attack were complete. Kiriakou believes that Trump often does this. He gives the enemy time to think but then takes sudden action so that the opponent cannot recover.

Iran could reach bomb-grade uranium in a week: Witkoff warns

Witkoff said Iran has now enriched uranium to 60% and will probably reach industrial-grade material within a week. Iran has crossed Trump's "zero enrichment" line. But Iran is repeatedly saying that its program is only peaceful and is not making weapons.

Iran gave some positive signs: Can it agree to uranium export or lower purity?

Iranian officials have shown a mild inclination. They said that if the US recognizes their right to peaceful enrichment and gives real relief on sanctions, then Tehran can send some part of high-enriched uranium out, reduce its purity or form a regional consortium. Foreign Minister Abbas Arghachi said that he is preparing a counterproposal soon.

Decisive meeting in Geneva on Thursday: Will any deal be reached?

Important talks are being held between America and Iran in Geneva on Thursday with the mediation of Oman. Arghachi has expressed hope that a diplomatic solution can be found here. 

Boiling again inside Iran: new demonstrations by students

The situation in Iran is tense. Many university students from Tehran and other cities have taken to the streets. They allege that the government took the lives of thousands of innocent people to suppress the major movements of January. All this together has made the situation more critical.
