Trump Sees 'Positive Momentum' on Iran After Qatar PM Talks
Trump said regional states back a naval blockade and new anti-smuggling operation as diplomats weigh a deal that could limit Iran’s uranium enrichment.
- On Monday, President Donald Trump stated there is "positive momentum" toward ending the conflict with Iran, expressing optimism the conflict could end soon while warning the United States remains "locked and loaded" should conditions change.
- According to Trump, Iran's military is "very much decapitated," with 158 ships underwater, 268 aircraft scattered across runways, and approximately 85 percent of missile and drone production capacity destroyed.
- Operation Iron Gate and a naval blockade pressure Tehran with support from Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, and Kuwait; Trump declared preventing a nuclear weapon "non-negotiable."
- Reports indicate a Pakistani-Qatari proposal may allow Iran to enrich uranium to 3.67 percent if it reduces 60 percent stockpiles and permits International Atomic Energy Agency inspectors to return, though Trump did not confirm these terms.
- Military action appears unnecessary at this stage, though Washington remains prepared to resume major operations if circumstances change; Trump concluded the Military Engagement will leave the United States, its allies, and the World safer.
