Washington: The US has again shown tough attitude amid talks with Iran on the nuclear program. On Sunday, US Defense Minister Pete Hegseth has hinted at a military attack in case the talks fail. Hegseth said that we want to stop Iran from making nuclear weapons and the use of diplomacy for this is a priority. If the talks fail, then the army is ready to take 'large-scale' action. Before Pete, US President Donald Trump has also said that if the talks in Oman on Iran's nuclear program fail, then a military attack on Tehran is possible in collaboration with Israel.
According to the report of Ynet, Hegseth has described the initial talks with Iran in Oman as a positive and good step. He said, 'President Donald Trump would never want to use the military option but we have the capability to go on a large scale. I would say that we do not want to take military action but if necessary to prevent Iran from getting a nuclear bomb in its hands, then this can also be done.'
Donald Trump also aggressive
Donald Trump has said many times in recent days that Iran's nuclear program will be stopped at any cost. He has called military action against Iran in collaboration with Israel 'possible'. He said that if needed, we will take military action to stop Iran's nuclear program. Israel will definitely be involved in this and will lead it.
Donald Trump had also warned Iran in late March that if they do not make any agreement, they will be bombed. Many experts in the West claim that Iran is close to making nuclear weapons. This has created fear in America and its allies. However, Iran has clearly denied making nuclear weapons.
US-Iran meeting in Oman
After Donald Trump wrote a letter to Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei, talks have started between the two countries. The first formal talks on the nuclear program between Iran and the US took place in Oman last Saturday. Both sides have said that the talks were positive and further talks will be held. Both sides have agreed to hold the next meeting on April 19. In this, there will be discussion on stopping Iran's nuclear program and lifting the sanctions.
