Opinions differ widely even at home in the US, let alone in the Middle East, about what the sixty-day extension of the ceasefire, known as a memorandum of understanding, achieves. Iranian President Masud Pezeškianwho signed the memorandum remotely together with the American Donald Trump, refused to end uranium enrichment just before the start of negotiations. “The US demands that Iran not build a nuclear bomb,” said the politician, who is considered more moderate, in a televised appearance. “This is nothing new, we can sign that we have no intention of building a nuclear bomb.”
The other side has no choice, they will have to accept our right to enrich uranium, the Iranian president added, and the American was appointed by the so-called president, who carried out a complete turnaround. In an interview with Fox News, Trump warned Pezeškian to watch his language, to pull himself together, or they would take over the rest of the country. The Republican champion argued that the Americans continue to hold the cards in their hands and have a range of options if Iran does not come to the negotiating table. The Iranians are again threatening to close the Strait of Hormuz if Israel does not stop attacking their ally Hezbollah in Lebanon.
