US President Donald Trump is not satisfied with the recent proposal presented by Iran because it does not include any clear position on Iran’s nuclear programme.
According to a US official, President Trump did not like the proposal and called it incomplete. The official said that the issue of Iran’s nuclear programme is of fundamental importance to the United States, and its inclusion in any possible agreement is inevitable.
According to reports, Donald Trump held detailed consultations with his top national security team on the issue earlier in the day, in which various aspects were reviewed. The meeting emphasised that clear and concrete conditions are necessary for any progress with Iran.
Sources say that the Iranian proposal apparently leaves room for discussion on other issues, but not including a sensitive issue like the nuclear programme is unacceptable to Washington.
According to analysts, this situation could further increase the ongoing tension between the United States and Iran, while security in the region and the global energy market could also be affected by the dispute.
US officials say that Washington is sticking to its policy and that no agreement is likely without clear progress on Iran’s nuclear programme.
