—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷 President Trump on Truth Social:

‘Iran decided to fire bullets yesterday in the Strait of Hormuz - A Total Violation of our Ceasefire Agreement! Many of them were aimed at a French Ship, and a Freighter from the United Kingdom.
That wasn't nice, was it?

My Representatives are going to Islamabad, Pakistan — They will be there tomorrow evening, for Negotiations.

Iran recently announced that they were closing the Strait, which is strange, because our BLOCKADE has already closed it. They're helping us without knowing, and they are the ones that lose with the closed passage, $500 Million Dollars a day! The United States loses nothing. In fact, many Ships are headed, right now, to the U.S., Texas, Louisiana, and Alaska, to load up, compliments of the IRGC, always wanting to be "the tough guy!"

We're offering a very fair and reasonable DEAL, and I hope they take it because, if they don't, the United States is going to knock out every single Power Plant, and every single Bridge, in Iran. NO MORE MR. NICE GUY! They'll come down fast, they'll come down easy and, if they don't take the DEAL, it will be my Honor to do what has to be done, which should have been done to Iran, by other Presidents, for the last 47 years. IT'S TIME FOR THE IRAN KILLING MACHINE TO END!

—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷 Summary of President Trump’s post:

– He says Iran breached the ceasefire by closing the Strait of Hormuz again.

– An American delegation will depart to Islamabad tomorrow for a second round of talks, and Trump urges Iran to attend and accept the deal the U.S. is going to offer.

– If Iran does not accept, it will be ‘Power Plant and Bridge Day’. Quote: ‘The United States is going to knock out every single Power Plant, and every single Bridge, in Iran. NO MORE MR. NICE GUY!’

@Middle_East_Spectator

Trump is too dumb to understand that EVEN IF Iran was inclined to make a deal on his terms (which it very much isn’t), these type of threats and posts ordering Iran to surrender will achieve the opposite of what he wants.

Do you really think Iran will now agree to anything he has proposed? That would be a total humiliation ritual and no serious diplomat would consider it any longer, even if it was hypothetically being considered.

In fact I wouldn’t be surprised if Iran considers these threats so insulting and a sign of bad intentions, that negotiations don’t even proceed.

—❗️🇮🇷 NEW: Sources tell MES of ‘scatter orders’ being issued to Iranian military personnel.

What that means is, stay away from each other when possible, don’t stay in the same place for long periods of time, minimize communications.

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 NEW: CNN claims an Iranian delegation will arrive in Islamabad on Tuesday for another round of talks with the U.S.

Furthermore, they say there will likely be an extension of the ceasefire on Wednesday.

And there will be a joint ‘meeting of Presidents’ between Pezeshkian and Trump if things go smoothly.

Admin note: A ‘meeting of Presidents’ is extremely unlikely, as Iran has always refused to meet with the U.S. President, even during the Obama era, let alone Trump.

—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷 Details of the latest U.S.-Iran draft proposal, according to Amit Segal & various other journalists:

– Iran commits to a 15-year enrichment suspension, with the exception of research reactors for medical isotopes.

– Iran’s stockpile of 60% and 20% enriched uranium would be partially converted to reactor fuel, and partially ‘downblended’ to a lower enrichment level. However, it won’t leave Iran.

– IAEA supervison on nuclear sites.

– Opening the Strait of Hormuz, with the possibility of collecting tolls.

– The U.S. will offer Iran phased sanctions relief.

– The U.S. will unfreeze all Iranian assets currently frozen abroad, amounting to $20 Billion or more.

– The U.S. will commit to a non-aggression pact with Iran that is ensured through a UN National Security Council resolution and a treaty ratified by Congress.

– The U.S. will withdraw all its military forces from the Persian Gulf.

NOTE: This is simply the proposal currently being discussed, neither side have yet agreed to it.

@Middle_East_Spectator

IF true, that would be a good deal in my honest opinion.

American forces leave the Persian Gulf, Iran gets to charge tolls on the Strait of Hormuz, and sanctions relief.

However, I doubt the U.S. would ever agree to such a deal, let alone abide by its terms if they did agree.

That’s the problem with America, they will 100% violate any deal, so it’s futile to even negotiate with them.
