Iran is signaling that any diplomatic off‑ramp from its escalating conflict with the United States would have to go far beyond the nuclear deal negotiated under Barack Obama.

Iran’s newly unveiled plan—released as part of the ceasefire announcement—makes no mention of nuclear limits or inspections.

Instead, the statement from Iran’s Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) says the U.S. would have to agree to enrichment, lift all primary and secondary sanctions, terminate all U.N. Security Council and IAEA resolutions against Tehran and compensate Iran for war damages.

    After he ripped up that deal in his first term and now attacked them in his second, they deserve it. It also doesn’t even matter what kind of deal he gives them because he’ll just go on tv, say it’s the best deal anyone has ever done and the morons will take his word for it and continue cheering him as the second coming of Jesus.

      It also doesn’t matter because his word isn’t worth the paper his autopen signs it on. He withdrew us from deals and treaties, he betrays and threatens allies, he reverses course so much we all have whiplash, and he lies all the time. Who would actually trust him!?

        This. As much as Trump keeps going on about “regime change” in Iran as necessary, I don’t know why Iran doesn’t just pull an Uno Reverse card and declare that they won’t make a deal until there is regime change in the US. The current US regime has demonstrated that they will not honor any agreements, so why bother making one?
