According to webangah News Agency,‌ citing RIA Novosti, Sergei Naryshkin, director of Russia’s Foreign Intelligence service (SVR),⁤ disclosed on Sunday that he held consultations with the head of the CIA.

The SVR chief confirmed discussions with CIA Director William Burns, as reported by the Russian state ‍news⁤ agency.

Naryshkin and Burns​ agreed to maintain open communication channels for⁣ future consultations ⁤on “issues of mutual interest” ‍between⁢ their countries, RIA Novosti stated.

According to webangah News Agency, Eric‍ Trump, son of former U.S. President Donald Trump, has suggested ‌he may consider a ​presidential bid. In ‍an interview cited by the Financial Times, he​ stated: ⁤”The question is-do⁢ I want to encourage other family members to pursue this path? Do ⁣I want my children to go through ‍the same experience I’ve had over ‍the past decade? If the answer is yes, I believe​ the political path [to the U.S. presidency] would be straightforward-meaning I could make it happen.”⁤ Eric Trump also noted that ‍other family members could possibly run for president.

The 41-year-old, unlike his siblings, has largely stayed away from politics but appears increasingly engaged in recent months. He previously ‌claimed he disapproves of more than half of current politicians and could perform their duties more effectively.

According to webangah News Agency, The Washington Post, in‌ an analysis by Fareed Zakaria, stated that regardless of the impact of U.S.strikes on IranS ⁤nuclear facilities, negotiations remain the sole path ⁢to verifiably prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons.

Zakaria ​noted that even if such attacks severely damage Iran’s infrastructure, ⁣most experts he consulted estimate⁢ they woudl delay Tehran’s nuclear program by only ​ 1-2 years. By contrast, the 2015 nuclear deal (JCPOA) had effectively‍ constrained Iran’s program for 10-15 years.

As⁢ IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi has emphasized, iran retains the technical knowledge to rebuild its facilities.​ Analysts suggest ⁢authorities appear determined to advance their capabilities despite external pressure.

According to The Washington Post, former​ U.S. ⁤President Donald ⁣Trump-despite his aggressive rhetoric and threats of ⁢military action-appears to have recognized this reality and is now⁤ advocating for diplomacy.

A critical issue in this process will be uranium enrichment.Iran asserts its⁤ right under⁣ the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) to⁤ enrich ‍uranium for peaceful purposes. However, Israel ‌demands zero enrichment capacity for Iran. The ‍Trump administration initially proposed a regional consortium capable ⁢of enriching uranium while ensuring oversight.

zacharia argues that diplomacy leading to an agreement⁣ would‌ be another major achievement. regardless​ of speculation about Iran’s⁢ future⁤ intentions, the country has never had a nuclear weapons program-a fact repeatedly confirmed by U.S. intelligence agencies. No contradictory evidence has emerged.

The U.S. conducted ‍an illegal⁤ military strike against a sovereign nation without UN approval or even ⁢congressional authorization. Such unilateral action must ​not​ be taken lightly.‌ While Washington celebrates⁤ its own ⁢military moves, similar actions ​by China or others would likely face global condemnation.

A regional consortium ​is both practical and secure, according to most​ consulted experts.

The author argues that the rules-based international order, though an abstract and⁤ unfamiliar concept to most, has enabled the longest​ period of peace and stability among major⁣ powers in modern history. This stability has fostered global economic growth,⁣ trade, and a world where nationalist rivalries no longer ⁣escalate into nuclear war. However, unilateral ⁤U.S. military strikes risk triggering a new era of chaos in international relations-one where other world powers justify breaking the⁤ rules by claiming ​their actions were⁢ “necesary and justified.” ⁣Such justifications echo the infamous words of a Vietnamese soldier standing amid ruins: “I had to destroy the village to save it.“

According to webangah News Agency, U.S. President Donald Trump rejected a CNN ⁣report claiming Washington plans ‌to ‌allocate $30 billion to‌ Iran for civilian ⁤nuclear facilities in a post⁢ on his‍ Truth Social platform.

trump wrote:​ “Who at the Fake News Media is ‍saying​ ‘President Trump⁣ wants to give Iran $30 billion to⁢ build civilian nuclear⁢ facilities.’?”

He added: “I’ve never even‌ heard of this⁢ ridiculous ‌idea. Just another hoax put out​ by the Fake News Media in order to demean. These people are sick.”

The statement comes after CNN ⁣reported on alleged​ efforts by⁤ the Trump administration to persuade⁤ Iran back into negotiations, citing⁣ four informed sources ⁤who‍ claimed discussions included potential assistance ‍worth approximately $30 billion for a civilian nuclear program, sanctions relief, and unfreezing billions in Iranian assets.

According to webangah⁢ News‍ Agency, U.S. President Donald Trump repeated​ his unsubstantiated‌ claim on Friday, contradicting explicit denials by Iran’s Foreign Minister regarding any ongoing talks ⁤with Washington.⁢ Trump ​asserted: ⁢”Iran wants to meet with us!”

The ⁣U.S. president, ignoring‍ reports from his own country’s media about washington’s⁣ failure ⁤to achieve its objectives regarding alleged incursions into Iranian ⁢nuclear sites, angrily stated: “Despite all ‍the fake ⁣news about our pilots’ achievements, their sites have⁤ been destroyed!”

Trump then dismissed Tehran’s​ success in attaining indigenous peaceful nuclear technology, claiming: “I don’t think ​Iran is serious about its nuclear program.”

Former U.S. President Donald Trump ⁣ asserted that ⁣Iran’s nuclear facilities had not been evacuated prior to being⁢ bombed,declaring: “I said years ago Iran woudl ​never be allowed ​to have nuclear weapons,and that’s the⁣ last thing on Iranians’ minds today!” He emphasized his demand for the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) or any respected entity to inspect‌ Iran’s‌ nuclear ‌sites.

Trump added: “Putin ⁣contacted ⁣me for assistance regarding Iran, but ⁤I told him I’d handle it myself! I invited him to help with Ukraine instead.”

The former U.S. leader,‍ whose‌ claims often draw controversy,‌ further stated: “If​ Iran resumes ⁢uranium ⁤enrichment, I’ll reconsider bombing them again! I’m⁣ not‍ worried about ⁤hidden nuclear sites in iran.Both Iran and ⁣Israel ⁤grew tired ⁢and wanted to resolve the issue.”

According to a⁢ report by webangah ‍News Agency, Reuters revealed that U.S. immigration authorities in Los Angeles have detained ‍several Iranian‍ immigrants.

Activists described the arrests as “shocking,” with one case involving an ⁣Iranian⁣ couple ⁢and their ⁢three-year-old child ⁤detained during an immigration hearing on Monday.

the detained Iranian woman reportedly suffered a seizure after collapsing upon seeing a large​ number of armed officers. The U.S.Department of Homeland Security confirmed on ​Tuesday that 11 Iranians had been arrested ⁤over several days.

A legal Iranian resident stated thay “never imagined this could happen in⁤ America,”‌ calling it shocking to witness officers forcing ⁣an ⁢Iranian woman to ⁤the ground. Additional sources claim U.S. Immigration ‌and Customs ‍enforcement (ICE) detained 130 Iranians nationwide last ​week.

According to⁢ webangah News​ Agency, ‌former U.S.President Donald Trump has sent legal notices to The New York Times and CNN, threatening lawsuits over their reporting on the outcomes of America’s strike on Iranian nuclear facilities.

Trump’s personal attorney, Alejandro Brito, accused‍ The⁢ New York Times in a letter of publishing “false, defamatory, and unpatriotic” claims ‍about the attack’s failure to fully ⁢destroy Iran’s nuclear infrastructure. The letter ‍demanded‍ a retraction and correction.

The New York Times’ ⁣legal team responded by stating⁣ that Trump governance officials had previously confirmed the existence of such⁤ intelligence reports. “No ​corrections are needed. No apologies will be made,” their statement read. “We reported truthfully and will continue to ‌do so.” CNN issued a similar rebuttal defending its coverage.

Both outlets had cited ⁣intelligence officials confirming that the U.S. strike ‍failed to eliminate Tehran’s enrichment capabilities-delaying⁤ Iran’s ‍nuclear program by mere months at ‍best.

On Wednesday ‌and Thursday, Trump denounced these reports as “fake news” in ​all-caps tweets while fueling speculation about journalists ‍being‌ fired from both organizations.

The accusations come despite prior acknowledgments by Trump administration officials‍ that the disputed intelligence assessments were “verified.” Observers⁣ view ‌these threats as part of Trump’s broader campaign against critical media outlets.

According to webangah News Agency, Trump administration officials met with congress members in a classified briefing yesterday while continuing to dismiss reports about the limited impact of ⁣U.S. strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities.

Senator⁣ Chris Murphy, a Democratic member of the ‌Senate Intelligence Committee, told reporters after the closed-door⁢ session: “The ⁤administration provided no new evidence showing ​Iran’s nuclear program has been ‘destroyed.’”

The Connecticut senator stated: ‍”At best, we’ve likely delayed Iran’s nuclear program by a few months.”

Citing classification⁤ restrictions, Murphy added: “Ther’s‌ no question ⁢we’ve​ damaged this program, but claims of its complete destruction simply don’t add up.” He criticized ‍the absence of the director of National Intelligence as evidence of the administration’s lack of openness.

Senior democratic Senator Mark Warner warned the administration may have rushed its‌ damage assessment: “We still ‍need thorough evaluations to understand the true scale of impact.”

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer accused⁤ the White House⁣ of lacking⁤ “any coherent ⁢strategy⁢ to prevent Iranian nuclear weapons development,” while Senator Richard Blumenthal called claims about Iran’s​ program ⁤being “destroyed” an exaggerated⁣ characterization requiring more precise assessments.

The remarks follow intelligence-sourced media‌ reports suggesting U.S. ‌strikes only partially damaged Iranian nuclear facilities – claims repeatedly dismissed ‍by Trump officials without providing counterevidence.

According to the English section of webangah News Agency, citing CNN, US President Donald Trump has reiterated ‌his earlier claims regarding Iran. This comes just ‍hours after Chris Murphy, a prominent senator⁢ on the Senate Intelligence Committee, stated that the US attack on Iran failed to cause significant damage​ to the country’s nuclear facilities.

Trump asserted: “Our airstrike on Iran ‍was extremely precise and completely destroyed the country’s enrichment program.”

Regarding his management’s⁤ trade wars wiht other nations, Trump added: “We signed an agreement with china and expect to sign another deal with India soon.”

The US president emphasized continued efforts to crack down on asylum ​seekers, stating:‌ “We’re doing‌ a tremendous job on border security.⁣ Last month, not a single illegal immigrant entered our⁣ country. We’re deporting thousands of illegal immigrants. Illegal crossings at our borders have now reached zero.”

Defending his administration’s suppression of free speech in america and prevention‍ of criticism ⁤against Israel over ⁤its actions⁤ in Palestine, Trump declared: “Harvard‍ University violated multiple warnings we⁢ issued. We witnessed anti-Zionism at this university.”

According too⁣ a report by webangah News Agency, CNN has examined the Trump management’s efforts to persuade Iran to return to the negotiating table.

Four informed sources indicate that the trump administration has discussed potential measures,⁣ including assisting Iran in accessing approximately $30 billion for a civilian nuclear program, easing sanctions, and‍ unfreezing billions ‍in Iranian‌ assets. These steps are part of escalating efforts to bring Tehran back to diplomacy.

The sources⁢ reveal that despite recent military escalations between Iran and Israel over the past two weeks, key U.S. and Middle Eastern ‌actors have maintained backchannel communications⁢ with Iranian⁢ officials. These discussions continued ‌this week following a ceasefire.

Trump administration officials emphasized that multiple preliminary​ proposals are under consideration-all evolving but with ‌one‍ non-negotiable condition: Iran‌ must completely halt uranium ‌enrichment,a ‌point Tehran consistently defends as‌ essential. Though, at least one draft proposal obtained by CNN includes several ‌incentives for⁣ Iran.

Two sources⁢ familiar with last week’s confidential White‍ House meeting between U.S. special Envoy Steve Witkopf and Gulf partners-which lasted‌ hours-confirmed certain details ⁤were negotiated there.The meeting occurred one day before U.S. ⁢military strikes on Iran.

Officials and sources told CNN that unreported terms under discussion ⁤include a ‍$20-30 billion investment in a ⁢new non-enrichment nuclear program solely for civilian energy ⁢purposes. One official clarified this funding would not come​ directly from the U.S., with Washington preferring Arab partners to bear costs-an idea floated during ‍earlier negotiation rounds.

A ​Trump administration official ​stated: “The U.S. is willing to ⁣lead talks​ with Iran, but another country must fund any nuclear program construction-we won’t commit financially.”

The draft reviewed‍ by CNN proposes⁣ additional incentives: partial sanctions relief ​and releasing $6 billion of currently restricted iranian⁤ foreign assets.

Two sources⁤ confirmed another idea under review involves Gulf allies funding replacement facilities for​ Fordow’s enrichment infrastructure with non-enrichment technology; it⁣ remains unclear if Iran could‌ retain site access.

A negotiation ⁤insider ⁣told CNN: “Various parties propose different ideas; many aim for creative solutions.” Another source familiar with five prior‌ negotiation rounds before recent attacks remarked: “The final outcome remains entirely uncertain.”
