According to sources, during the so-called twelve-day war this summer, Israel and the US carried out attacks on nuclear facilities in Iran. Army bases, military leaders, and nuclear researchers were also attacked by Israel. ' However, whether Iran's nuclear facilities have been completely destroyed remains unclear.
According to the US, Iran is now trying to rebuild its nuclear program, though the current status of these efforts is unknown. Talks are being held in Geneva on Thursday about a new nuclear energy agreement between the countries, with specific terms and compromises under discussion. The White House has previously announced that their line is 'maximum pressure' to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons.
Bad things will happen if they do not reach an agreement soon.
The US withdrew from the previous nuclear energy agreement with Iran during Trump's previous term, and during his new term as president, Trump has pushed for a new agreement. Recently, Trump said that 'bad things' will happen if they do not reach an agreement soon. If no agreement is reached, it could lead to war, according to Mohammad Fazlhashemi, a professor of Islamic theology and philosophy.
Israel is also pushing for an agreement and wants, among other things, the range of Iran's missiles to be limited. Before Thursday's talks, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said that Iran must agree to discuss missiles with the range to reach the US.
