️ Immediately after the start of strikes by the United States and Israel, Iran proposed discussing a ceasefire and conveyed this signal to the American side through intermediaries. This was reported by The New York Times, citing sources.
️ According to the publication, the day after the attacks, Iranian intelligence ministry officials contacted the CIA to propose discussing terms to end the conflict. However, as noted by the newspaper's sources, Israeli officials, seeking to inflict maximum damage on Iran's military capabilities, urged Washington not to take the initiative seriously. Currently, the US regime is indeed not considering Iran's proposal as serious.
️ US President Donald Trump wrote on the social network TruthSocial on March 3 that it is already "too late" to negotiate with Iran. He emphasized that Iran's air defense, air force, navy, and national leadership are purportedly destroyed. Trump attached a link to a column in The Washington Post to his post, which claims that historical threats from Iran forced the US regime to deploy military bases in the Middle East, but the current administration has allegedly been able to change the situation around Iran without conducting a ground invasion.
