Trump retreats and waves to Iran with new nuclear deal'

U.S. President Donald Trumpdeclared wednesday, 8, at the White House to be willing to begin negotiations on a new nuclear deal with Iran, capable of preventing the country from developing nuclear weapons, and from working with Tehran to fight islamic state's remaining cells in the Middle East.

In order not to indicate any act of retaliation by the United States against Iran for its attacks on U.S. bases in Iraq on Tuesday night 7 (Wednesday), Trump reported that there were no casualties. "Iran will not be allowed to have nuclear weapons. Good morning," Trump began his white house address. "No Americans were threatened by the bombings last night," he continued.

The Republican used the speech to reduce the scale of tension with Iran and promised "powerful sanctions" - not military retaliation - in response to Tuesday's airstrike. He also stated that the Iranian regime seems to be "calming down": "What is a good thing for everyone involved and a good thing for the world."

In advocating a new nuclear deal with Iran, Trump called on France, the UK and Germany to break with the previous treaty signed in 2015 during the administration of Democrat Barack Obama, which also involves China and Russia. The United States in 2018 withdrew from this settlement.

In an unlikely gesture ahead of Tuesday's Iranian missile attacks, Trump called on Tehran to become a more active actor in the Middle East peace process and build, along with the United States, "a future of prosperity and harmony" for the region. The Republican said his country is prepared to "seek peace." But he stressed that iran's terror campaign in the region "will no longer be tolerated." The American president went further and justified the attack he ordered to eliminate Soleimani.

"Soleimani was responsible for the worst atrocities. He murdered thousands of U.S. military personnel, led recent attacks (against U.S. targets in Iraq) and orchestrated the attack on the United States embassy," he said, referring to the attack on U.S. representation in Beirut in the Lebanon in 1983, which caused 63 deaths.

This was the first official White House statement since Iran's bombings of The American bases of Al Asad and Erbil on Tuesday night 7 (Wednesday in the Middle East), as retaliation for the United States attack that culminated in the assassination of Iranian General Qasen Soleimani in Baghdad, Iraq. The military was commander of iran's revolutionary guard elite forces, considered a national hero and was the second most powerful authority in the country, after supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

Trump had called an emergency meeting at the White House on Tuesday night and had promised to make a press release shortly thereafter. Vice President Mike Pence and Defense Secretary Mark Esper of State Mike Pompeo and U.S. Joint Forces Chief General Mark Milley attended the meeting. But at the end of the conversation, he just fired a tweet. "So far, that's fine," the president wrote. "We have the most powerful and better equipped militarism than any other in the world by far," he wrote.

In the heat of events in the Middle East, the White House predicted to leave for the next day its most measured demonstration to Americans and the world. Trump said his administration invested $3.5 billion in the country's Armed Forces, which he considers the world's most prepared equipment and contingent preparation. "But we don't want to use them," he insisted, to complete that the Defense arsenal has as a priority to serve to stop actions against the country.

With his remarks Wednesday, Trump apparently cools a potential armed conflict in the Middle East that would drag allies from Washington and Tehran inside and outside the region into different trenches. The American leader will also have included in his calculation the impact of a war on international oil prices, which have escalated since last week, and consequently in the still slow pace of growth in the world economy. He recalled that the United States "doesn't need Middle Eastern oil." But omitted the weight of the highest commodity prices in the American economic situation.

After the Iranian bombings, the Tehran government announced that any reprisal from the United States would be responded with attacks on Haifa in Israel and Dubai in the United Arab Emirates. Ayatollah Khamenei said Iran's reaction was a "slap in the face" of the United States and condemned the presence of U.S. military contingents in theregion. "The corrupt presence of the United States in the region must end," he said in a speech broadcast on state television in the country. Foreign Minister Javad Zarif declared on Tuesday night on Twitter that Iran's attitude was defensive, based on Article 51 of the United Nations Charter, and that his country does not want the escalation of the conflict or war.

So far, the Iranian government has not spoken out about Donald Trump's statements.
