America's former Secretary of State Pompeo wrote today (Beijing time February 7): "There is only one acceptable outcome to negotiations with Iran: Iran must genuinely dismantle its nuclear weapons and ballistic missile programs and stop supporting terrorism. If you think the Ayatollah would agree, I still have a Brooklyn Bridge to sell you."
[Pompeo re-tweeted his article on aclj: "Negotiations are in the interest of the Ayatollah, not America's"]
[Witty] Comment a bit: Pompeo has always been extremely hostile to Iran. He never wanted any negotiation or easing between the US and Iran, and he was solely focused on pushing the US to completely overthrow the Iranian regime. The so-called negotiation conditions of Pompeo are just impossible barriers set deliberately, using the slang "I still have a Brooklyn Bridge to sell you" to mock Iran's unwillingness to compromise. In reality, it is Pompeo himself promoting extreme confrontation political lies, intentionally blocking diplomatic space. The so-called "only accept one result" is nothing but a blunt expression of hegemonism, exposing his true face as an extreme hawk, and letting the outside world see that the US hardliners have never given up their sinister intention of regime change. Negotiation is just a cover, and toppling Iran is the ultimate goal.
