Trump Speaks with Putin – Both Appear Be on Same Page Regarding Iran Getting Nukes
In a recent interaction, president Donald Trump spoke with Russian President Vladimir Putin, reportedly finding common ground on the issue of preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons.During their 75-minute conversation, Trump indicated that time is crucial for Iran too make a decision about its nuclear ambitions. he expressed to Putin that Iran should not obtain nuclear arms and mentioned that Putin is willing to assist in facilitating discussions with Iran to expedite the matter.
Moreover, Trump criticized Iran for delaying its decision on nuclear weapons and asserted that under a proposed agreement, no uranium enrichment would be permitted. The conversation coincided with increased cooperation between Russia and Iran, notably after the establishment of a 20-year strategic partnership agreement aimed at enhancing defense ties. Additionally,Trump reaffirmed the U.S.’s stance against Iran enriching uranium, contradicting earlier reports suggesting limited enrichment might be allowed. Turkish diplomatic engagements, including warnings from Saudi Arabia regarding potential military action by Israel against Iran’s nuclear capabilities, further highlight the urgency surrounding the negotiations.
President Donald Trump said he spoke with Russian President Vladimir Putin Wednesday, and the two appear to agree that Iran cannot be allowed to obtain nuclear weapons.
Trump wrote in a post that the call lasted 75 minutes, and he told Putin that “time is running out on Iran’s decision pertaining to nuclear weapons.” The president is seeking a nuclear weapons agreement with Tehran.
“I stated to President Putin that Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon and, on this, I believe that we were in agreement. President Putin suggested that he will participate in the discussions with Iran and that he could, perhaps, be helpful in getting this brought to a rapid conclusion,” the president wrote.
His word choice of “I believe” indicated at least some level of uncertainty about where Putin stands.

Russia and Tehran have worked more closely together since the war in Ukraine began in 2022.
In April, Russia’s lower-house State Duma ratified a 20-year strategic partnership agreement with Iran, which had been signed by Putin and his Iranian counterpart, Masoud Pezeshkian, on Jan. 17, Reuters reported.

Iran’s parliament approved it in May. “The agreement represents a deepening of bilateral ties including closer defence cooperation,” according to the outlet.
Trump also asserted in his post, “It is my opinion that Iran has been slowwalking their decision on this very important matter, and we will need a definitive answer in a very short period of time!”
On Monday, Trump contradicted earlier reports that his administration would allow Iran to enrich uranium at a non-weapons-grade level under a potential deal.
Axios reported that the U.S. offered Tehran a nuclear deal on Saturday that would require it to temporarily reduce its enrichment concentration to 3 percent, a level well below the weapons-grade 90 percent.
Additionally, the regime would have to make its underground nuclear facilities “non-operational” for a period of time, which is yet to be decided.
However, Trump posted on on Monday evening, “The AUTOPEN should have stopped Iran a long time ago from ‘enriching.’ Under our potential Agreement — WE WILL NOT ALLOW ANY ENRICHMENT OF URANIUM!”
