Former US President Donald Trump has accused Iran of being “unbelievably duplicitous,” alleging the country initially pleaded for negotiations but now denies any discussions are taking place. Trump characterized potential talks as Tehran’s “last chance to sign a good document,” hinting at potential consequences if they fail. He also suggested a return to addressing Iran’s nuclear program will be a lengthy process. The remarks come amid stalled efforts to revive the 2015 nuclear deal, which Trump unilaterally withdrew the US from in 2018. Trump’s statement employs strong rhetoric, also referencing a vague “decapitation” scenario, adding to existing tensions. The former president’s comments reflect his longstanding skepticism towards Iran and his preference for a maximalist approach to negotiations.
