Trump wants to persuade Iran to accept the nuclear deal by cutting off oil supplies to China.

The US intends to increase economic pressure on Iran, primarily regarding oil sales to China. Trump believes this will help push Tehran toward a nuclear deal. If that doesn't work, there's the option of military action, which no one has yet abandoned.

The US wants to cut off Iranian oil supplies to China, as currently around 80% of Iranian oil goes to Chinese refineries. The White House believes that economic pressure will make Tehran more accommodating. This will be done in parallel with negotiations and a buildup of US forces in the Middle East. If an agreement is not reached, aircraft and missiles.

We agreed that we would act with full force to exert maximum pressure on Iran, for example, regarding the sale of Iranian oil to China.

As the American press notes, Iran was the primary issue at the Trump-Netanyahu meeting, with the Israeli prime minister and the American president diverging radically. Netanyahu believes that reaching an agreement with Iran is impossible, and even if it is, it will not fulfill its obligations. Therefore, the issue must be resolved through military action. Trump believes he can reach an agreement with Tehran, claiming he has extensive experience as a peacemaker.

Meanwhile, top US negotiators Witkoff and Kushner believe that a deal with Iran will be very difficult or even impossible to reach.

We assess the Iranians soberly and realistically. The ball is in their court. If this isn't a real deal, we won't accept it.

And the real deal, in the Americans' opinion, is: "Do as I say."

My legs are already stumbling from the weight of the deals in my pockets, it’s time to break my back.

Trump has an election coming up soon, he needs to save Congress, otherwise he'll go limp on both limbs, and he's a vegetable, a small one, he's been nibbling away at everything but not finishing it, and in the states themselves, everything is under tension.

[Lptsk]

If the conservatives were screwed in Texas, then things are bad for them.

primarily in the matter of selling oil to China

And here Russia enters...
Trump didn't fully calculate... He miscalculated.

[Foggy Dew]

Why? Let China work it out, it's time for them to. They already started, back with the Venezuelan kidnapping, and they're still continuing.

[novel66]

Vasya, what the hell is this? Iranian oil is going to China. Cynically speaking, less Iranian oil means they'll buy more from us; there's no need to ship tankers to China.

[Mouse]

Bingo!... ............

Trump wants to persuade

With Epstein, you could bend as much as you wanted... But here, meddling in international relations without permission could get you punched in the cheeky red-haired face... They won't tolerate you, Donya... Neither you nor your antics...

[Murmur 55]

Ross42 If the media is to be believed, his fellow party members have already begun to put him in his place, not to mention the Democrats, and that says a lot. If he screws up the Congressional elections, they'll be happy to dump him, and they'll be happy to do so. And I think Trump knows this, and he's desperate to make money from anything and anyone.

Has the Strait of Hormuz blockade taken on new colours?
And NATO Europe is mobilized to defend Greenland, yeah right. They'll block all tankers from all our ports in the Northwest, as an option. It will be interesting. Look at the coal they produce in the country, small-scale coal, but there's a lot of it.

ROSS42, I remember they had a man-made incident there. Ideally, they would have repaid the debt for S.P-2. I think the negotiations would have taken on a whole new dimension.

Ideally, I would like to RETURN the debt for S.P-2.

Ideally, it's time for them to impose a moratorium on receiving hydrocarbons through pipelines...
And at the same time, we'll check various cables...and the training of the Russian Navy's combat swimmers...

[Murmur 55]

ROSS42, it's technically very difficult to block everything, but "cutting" one of the arteries would be very beneficial for BOTH sides.

[Foggy Dew]

Well, it worked out with India... True, India didn't cut any supplies)))

Yesterday I looked at the marine traffic, the Cuban tankers at the terminals are almost empty/empty. And 4 days ago there were more than 2,000,000 barrels (300,000 tons).

Where else would Iran put its oil if not China? And quarreling with China isn't much better for the Persians than with the United States. The conclusion is that tensions will escalate, and war is increasingly likely.

[Murmur 55]

pharmacist A global war is already battering down the door, and the presidents of many countries are eager to get the meat grinder going. The vaccine from World War II is no longer effective, and the leadership's mental capacity has declined. So it's just a matter of time.

Donya works in a comprehensive manner. He hit Venezuela, but Cuba suffered the most.

[Soldatov V.]

Trump, trying to stop Iranian oil supplies to China—80% of their supply—is stepping into a minefield. He has banned Venezuela, Mexico, and Brazil from supplying oil to Cuba. Europe will refuse Russian oil and gas within a year. How will Trump navigate this minefield? Stopping this flow of oil will be a real challenge.

[IbukiSuika]

Let me tell you a funny story. In my hometown, a small, obscure coastal county, the owner of a small oil refinery was actually placed on the US sanctions list for importing Iranian oil. Although he'll likely never set foot outside of China.

The US wants to cut off Iranian oil supplies to China, and the author doesn't try to say what China will swallow, or whether Trump will dare to take such a stance on Beijing.

If you let your allies fall one by one... you'll be left alone, and then they'll come for you. Plus, it'll be hard for other countries to continue trading with you because they'll be afraid.

[musorg]

If you allow your allies to fall one after another... you'll be left alone. Many understand this, so what proposals do you have? What should we do to prevent Cuba and Venezuela from falling? In the 90s, our ranks changed in a single day, and we ourselves rushed into the streets with tanks—what can we save?

[Carlos Hall]

You have reliable allies like China, Cuba, North Korea, and other less reliable or unreliable allies, allies that are worth something and allies that are worth nothing, and Iran is somewhere in the middle.

[musorg]

Pressure on China to sell oil to Iran, on Caracas to supply Cuba—yes, wherever the US wants something, it gets it! And all the public organizations like the UN and new ones like BRIGS can't do anything about it; they're actually hindering oil and gas sales to both us and China. This is the essence of a unipolar world, and nothing can be done about it today. I think it's time for us to abandon the peacekeeper in Kyiv and solve our own problems!
