Iranian foreign minister scheduled to meet European counterparts in Geneva​

• 
  Mike Hanna

Reporting from Washington, DC, United States

We did hear President Trump say during his media briefing that he was keen on maintaining talks about ending Iran’s nuclear programme.

The possibility of Iranians coming to the White House was floated. Obviously, no conformation whatsoever of such a statement.

However, there is a tangible thing happening on Friday and that is European foreign ministers will be meeting in Geneva with the Iranian foreign minister.

The leaders of France, Germany and Britain will be meeting the Iranian foreign minister, and this, we are told, is a meeting being coordinated by the United States … which could possibly be a window for President Trump to continue to push for some form of agreement to come out of Iran.

The European foreign ministers are seeking assurances from Iran that its nuclear development will remain a peaceful one and that there is no intent to create a nuclear weapon.

And, as we’ve heard, the US will be playing a role, albeit indirect, in those particular discussions.

Israeli envoy to US says Iran's ability to produce ballistic weapons must also be eliminated​

From CNN’s Chris Lau
Israel’s ambassador to the US said Wednesday that Israel must eliminate not only Iran’s ability to make nuclear weapons, but also its ability to produce ballistic missiles.

“They come cruising out of the sky and create incredible damage,” Yechiel Leiter told CNN’s Kaitlan Collins, referring to Iran’s missiles. “That production capacity has to be eliminated as well.”

“They cannot have the weapons that can destroy Israel, which they claim and which they want to do every day,” he added.

Asked about Israel’s ability to destroy Iran’s Fordow nuclear enrichment site, buried deep under a mountain near the city of Qom, Leiter said “it might require multiple strikes, it might require something else or it might require one of our surprises,” without going into details.

“We have a few tricks up our sleeves,” he said, when asked about Israel’s response if the US were not to get involved in the conflict.

“If we have to pursue this and prosecute this by ourselves, we’re going to know what to do. We’re not going to allow Iran to have a nuclear weapon,” he told Collins.

The toxic parasites to nations strike again

Zionism was the worst thing to happen to regular jɛws.
The first modern jɛwish state and this is their legacy.

Genocide.
Apartheid.
Ethnic cleansing.
Land theft.
Terrorism.
Infiltrating foreign governments.
Own media and use it to push propaganda globally.
Own Black culture, push destruction and exploit Black artists.

It’s almost as if-

Israeli evacuation threat targets area around Iran’s Arak heavy-water nuclear reactor​

The Associated Press (AP) news agency reports that the target of Israel’s recent evacuation threat in the vicinity of Arak and Khondab cities is Iran’s Arak heavy-water nuclear reactor.
According to AP, Iran had agreed under its 2015 nuclear deal with world powers to redesign the Arak facility to relieve proliferation concerns. Heavy water helps cool nuclear reactors, but it produces plutonium as a byproduct that can potentially be used in nuclear weapons.

Iran has said its nuclear programme is for civilian purposes, and Britain had previously been helping the Iranian government to redesign the Arak reactor to limit the amount of plutonium it produces, AP reports.

As part of negotiations around the 2015 deal, Iran agreed to sell off its heavy water to Western countries. Even the US purchased some 32 tonnes of heavy water for more than $8m in one deal, according to AP.

Israel’s air strikes have already targeted Iran’s nuclear site at Natanz, centrifuge workshops around Tehran and a nuclear site in Isfahan.
The United Nations International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has urged Israel not to strike Iranian nuclear sites.
IAEA inspectors reportedly last visited Arak on May 14.
