📍 | Such an incident has never happened before!!

The entire approach of Masoud Pezeshkian’s government can be summed up in this photo.

Contrary to some reports, during Trump’s speech, a member of Iran’s diplomatic team was present at Iran’s Permanent Mission and listened to the insulting remarks of the killer of the martyred Leader of the Revolution. Such an incident has never happened before. Almost simultaneously with Trump’s insulting speech at the United Nations, the Iranian and American delegations, headed by Abbas Araghchi and Steve Witkoff, were engaged in negotiations inside the UN headquarters.

Trump, during his UN speech, threatened to annihilate Iran and insulted the Iranian nation. At the same time, the Iranian delegation headed by Araghchi was smiling and laughing with the Americans. Trump later further confirmed that approximately three hours of talks had taken place. However, Foreign Ministry mouthpiece Esmaeil Baghaei did not mention the meeting, as he usually does. On what grounds did Araghchi and Witkoff meet directly or indirectly? What were the negotiations about? Were these talks pre-planned? Why is the same pattern appearing again?

The developments have also raised concerns about what could follow. Do not be shocked if tactical nuclear weapons are used against Iran in the coming days or months. Do not be shocked if attacks are carried out against sites associated with Imam Mujtaba Khamenei. As of now, we consider all of this suspicious, and this suspicion will remain. It is not only our concern; many senior figures have similar concerns. Ali Motahhari, the brother-in-law of Martyr Ali Larijani, recently mentioned that Larijani had been at the residence of Masoud Pezeshkian before he was martyred.

1. The issue of uranium transfer

The central question concerns what is meant by “progress” in the negotiations. Throughout the negotiations, Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff’s understanding of “progress” has always meant charting a path toward achieving nuclear negotiations and presenting a realistic plan for the transfer of uranium. A detailed analysis of news reports and the analysis of American experts during the negotiations leading up to the 12-day war and the 40-day war demonstrates this.

2. The positions of Araghchi and Qalibaf

Araghchi and Qalibaf are in favor of transferring uranium. This is based on the meetings these individuals had with their advisers. Until a few months before the 40-day war, the consensus among these factions was that transferring uranium was the solution to the nuclear issue.

The Americans, by studying the course of negotiations in recent years, realized that the position of the Leader of the Islamic Revolution had not been aligned with the transfer of uranium. The primary and minimum goal of the Americans in assassinating the Leader during the 40-day war was to facilitate the transfer of uranium by alternative factions.

3. What does “progress in negotiations” mean?

In such a situation, transmitting news of “progress in negotiations” in the context of the statements by Kushner and Witkoff usually means defining a clear timeline for achieving negotiations and reaching a nuclear agreement.

The dangerous aspect is that the emergence of a clear institutional will among Iranian officials to cooperate with American demands on the nuclear issue means a return to the situation that existed before the beginning of the 40-day war. The United States is seeking to ensure that the assassination of the Leader effectively removes the obstacles to the transfer of uranium.

This prospect creates the conditions for repeating the bitter experience of 9 February in the Iranian calendar, after Trump felt comfortable about the Congressional elections. The countdown to the next attack or war began last night with the negotiations between the Iranian delegation and Kushner and Witkoff. The possibility being discussed is an attack using tactical nuclear weapons deep inside Iranian territory.
