Iran Has ‘Agreed to Everything,’ Trump Says

President Donald Trump said on Friday that Iran has “agreed to everything” and will work with the United States to remove its enriched uranium.

The president told CBS News in a phone interview that the removal operation will not involve U.S. troops on the ground.

“No. No troops,” he said. “We’ll go down and get it with them, and then we’ll take it. We’ll be getting it together because by that time, we’ll have an agreement and there’s no need for fighting when there’s an agreement. Nice right? That’s better. We would have done it the other way if we had to.”

The other way would have involved troops going in and seizing the material.

“Our people, together with the Iranians, are going to work together to go get it. And then we’ll take it to the United States,” he said of the enriched uranium.

Axios had previously reported that several proposals were in discussion, with one being the possibility of the uranium being moved to a third-party country.

Iran had sought an agreement allowing them to “down-blend” their enriched uranium.

“A top priority for the Trump administration is ensuring Iran can’t access the stockpile of nearly 2,000kg of enriched uranium buried in its underground nuclear facilities, in particular the 450kg enriched to 60% purity,” Axios explained.


Most commercial nuclear power plants use 3 to 5 percent enriched uranium, and 90 percent is often the threshold associated with nuclear weapons, according to the Center for Arms Control and Non-Proliferation.

Before the outbreak of the war, U.S. special envoy Steve Witkoff told Fox News that in March, Iranian negotiators boasted to him that they had enough enriched uranium to build 11 nuclear weapons.

The Iranian negotiators apparently said “they had the inalienable right to enrich all their nuclear fuel that they possessed,” Witkoff said.

“We, of course, responded that the president feels we have the inalienable right to stop you dead in your tracks,” he added.

“In that first meeting, both the Iranian negotiators said to us, directly, with no shame, that they controlled 460 kilograms of 60 percent, and they’re aware that that could make 11 nuclear bombs, and that was the beginning of their negotiating stance,” Witkoff recounted.

He explained that 60 percent enriched uranium can be brought to weapons grade in roughly one week in a nuclear facility.

Witkoff noted, “They were proud that they had evaded all sorts of oversight protocols to get to a place where they could deliver 11 nuclear bombs.”

The Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday that the U.S. blockade of the Strait of Hormuz initiated on Monday was costing Iran up to $435 million a day, including $276 million in lost exports.

The blockade, coupled with weeks of air strikes from the U.S. and Israel, which devastated Iran’s steel and petrochemical facilities, has the country’s economy on the brink of collapse.

ULTIMATUM: President Trump Issues Chilling 48-Hour Warning to Iran as Deadline Looms — ‘All Hell Will Reign Down’

President Donald J. Trump took to Truth Social on Saturday to deliver a final, bone-chilling warning to the radical mullahs in Tehran: Open the Strait of Hormuz now, or face total annihilation.

Trump has been playing nuclear-level chess with the Iranian regime ever since they tried to choke off one-fifth of the world’s oil supply in retaliation for America and Israel’s decisive strikes that left their military in ruins.

Back on March 21, Trump issued his first iron-fisted 48-hour ultimatum, warning that the U.S. would “obliterate” Iran’s power plants, starting with the biggest ones, if the Strait wasn’t opened “FULLY, WITHOUT THREAT.”

The regime responded with hysterical threats to wipe out Middle East water supplies and desalination plants, proving once again they are nothing but a bunch of apocalyptic fanatics who hate civilization.

Trump graciously extended the deadline by 10 days at Iran’s request to give them a chance to negotiate, setting a new drop-dead date for Monday, April 6.

But the ayatollahs have continued to play games, allowing limited oil to flow to everyone EXCEPT the U.S., Israel, and key Gulf allies while keeping the world on the brink of an energy crisis.

Now, with the extended deadline looming, President Trump is reminding the world, and especially the mad mullahs in Tehran, that his patience has limits.

“Remember when I gave Iran ten days to MAKE A DEAL or OPEN UP THE HORMUZ STRAIT. Time is running out – 48 hours before all Hell will reign down on them. Glory be to GOD! President DONALD J. TRUMP”

President Trump on Thursday posted a video of Iran’s B1 bridge in Karaj, the tallest bridge in the Middle East, being destroyed in an airstrike.

Trump posted the video on Truth Social, writing, “The biggest bridge in Iran comes tumbling down, never to be used again — Much more to follow! IT IS TIME FOR IRAN TO MAKE A DEAL BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE, AND THERE IS NOTHING LEFT OF WHAT STILL COULD BECOME A GREAT COUNTRY! President DONALD J. TRUMP.”

POWDER KEG EUROPE: German Men Now Have to Ask the Army for Permission to Leave the Country for More Than Three Months

Published

Welcome to the Bundeswehr, young men.

German fighting-age males are getting an early taste of the military escalation on the old continent.

We have been reporting here on TGP how the Euro-Globalist ‘leaders’ in Europe have been pushing their countries through a military buildup not seen since the end of the Cold War.

But it did take us by surprise just how fast Germany escalated their military service rules into draconian demands.

It has now been reported that German men ‘of fighting age’ must now ask the Bundeswehr for permission to leave the country for more than three months.

The Telegraph reported:

“The government has introduced a new military service scheme this year that stops short of conscription but requires men born from 2008 onwards to take a medical exam and fill in a survey about their fitness for service.

It has emerged that a clause in the law also requires men aged between 17 and 45 to obtain a permit from the Bundeswehr, the German armed forces, before leaving the country for extended periods.”

“The purpose of the new rule in Germany is to restrict the movements of men of fighting age in the event of a national crisis such as a war, which may require emergency conscription.

The rule says: ‘Male persons who have reached the age of 17 must obtain permission from the responsible career center of the German armed forces if they wish to leave the Federal Republic of Germany for more than three months’.”
