What's Next? Trump and Iranian Leader Fully Disagree on Terms of a Deal

May 18, 2025

Iran and US seem to both be just "buying time" with their peace talks. While U.S. Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff has confirmed US will NOT ‘Allow even 1% of an enrichment capability’ in Iran nuclear deal, Iran's Foreign Minister says there is 'no way' Iran will stop its uranium enrichment!

Iran's Leader while talking to teachers and promoting Islamification of textbooks, referred to Trump's visit to the Persian Gulf region and perhaps indirectly to Trump's letter to him, by calling Trump a "liar" because "America has always used its power not for peace but for waging wars and bloodshed like the massacre in Gaza, and that's why Iran will keep increasing its military might... America will leave the region one way or another and Israel will also be eradicated."

An Iranian Congressman recommends that Iran's Supreme Leader plan a historic visit to Russia and China for direct meetings with Russian and Chinese Leaders for the first time, and standing up to Trump:

Political commentator Congressman Abolfazl Zohreh Vand, a member of the House National Security Committee, confirms the contradiction between the message by Iran's Supreme Leader, calling any deal with the US "a dishonor," and Iran's Negotiating Team calling the talks "constructive!" He states: "Trump is buying time with these negotiations. If we engage in a war, American are easily destroyed so we have no military fears. But economically, if we do not approach China, we are vulnerable. In Iran and Russia, oligarchs and globalists are the real concerns. In Russia, Jewish oligarchs, close to Israel, can even assassinate Putin. Our problems are domestic and lack of economic or political or military transparency. The Governance has issues. We are not transparent with our people. If I was the leader, I would reevaluate all our relations. Even pay a visit to Russia and China and stand up to Trump." He says as soon as the Congress ratifies the long-term Russia-Iran Pact, Putin plans a visit to Tehran, but "We are even closer in our interests to China, which has no Jewish mafia like in Russia, and their leader is more reliable [than Russia's]."

Recently, another Iranian analyst has pointed out to Iran's Plasma and UFO Weapons.

It appears that Trump's three peace plans, in Ukraine, Gaza and Iran are all facing serious obstacles because Putin, Netanyahu and Khamenei are not budging to Trump's terms. To pressure Netanyahu and Khamenei, Trump is making deals with Arab countries and making concessions (agreeing to an independent Palestinian state and calling Persian Gulf, Arabian Gulf). To pressure Putin and Netanyahu, Trump is offering an olive branch to Iranian leaders on economic trade and lifting sanctions. Putin, Netanyahu and Khamenei seem to know, as in The Prisoner's Dilemma, their fates are interrelated, so none is budging much to Trump's demands. TIME is used by Israel to finish Gaza, by Iran to finish enrichment, by Russia to secure Ukraine position. Everybody's buying time in a war of attrition that is costly to Europe (Ukraine), Russia, Iran, Israel, Palestine, and even Persian Gulf Arab states!
