Trump Has a Rare and Short Window to Solve the Iran Problem — Here’s How - War on the Rocks
Feb 04, 2025
In 2025, there is a big problem with Iran trying to build nuclear weapons. The previous deal to limit Iran's nuclear program didn't work. Now, Iran is close to having a nuclear weapon. The United States, under President Trump, has a chance to fix this problem before it's too late.
Iran has also been supporting proxy groups in the region, but these groups are now weaker due to actions taken by Israel. The United States needs to stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons and from supporting these proxy groups. This can be done by talking to Iran and making it clear that their actions are not acceptable.
The United States should also work with allies to stop Iran from exporting missiles and drones. This will prevent Iran from helping other countries gain military capabilities. Sanctions relief may be needed as part of a deal with Iran, but it's important to make sure Iran doesn't go back on their promises.
President Trump has a short window of time to fix the Iran problem. If he doesn't act now, the situation could get worse. It's important to take bold actions to prevent Iran from becoming a nuclear threat and to stop their support of proxy groups in the region. The time to act is now.
