US media reported today: "Iran has rejected all US demands. A US delegation led by Trump's close friend Steve Wetenkamp and son-in-law Jared Kushner proposed the following to Iran: destroy three major nuclear facilities, Fordo, Natanz, and Isfahan; transfer all remaining enriched uranium to the US; permanently stop all uranium enrichment activities; and accept a permanent agreement without a set term. Iran rejected all of the above proposals, and no agreement was reached between the US and Iran."
Comment: The conditions set by the US are equivalent to forcing Iran to surrender completely and weaken itself. Iran's complete rejection is an inevitable choice to safeguard its national sovereignty and survival. Destroying core nuclear facilities, handing over all enriched uranium, permanently stopping enrichment, and signing an open-ended agreement - each of these provisions deprives Iran of its right to peacefully use nuclear energy and completely cuts off its security support. Iran clearly understands that once it compromises, it will have no power to fight back and will be at the mercy of others.
This is not a negotiation, but a coercive ultimatum, a move to "de-militarize" Iran. Iran's rejection is not just of several demands, but a refusal to accept unequal, unsecured, and nation-destroying arrangements. The US is massing troops on its borders while demanding exorbitantly, aiming to force Iran to submit through extreme pressure. However, Iran's strong response proves that sovereignty and security cannot be traded, and peace can only be built on equality and respect, not unilateral submission.
