Donald Trump is contemplating a potential agreement that would allow Iran to restart uranium enrichment in ten years, despite his recent outburst at top military leaders after Iran shot down two American pilots.

The proposed deal suggests that Iran halt its uranium enrichment activities for a decade and, after this period, be allowed to produce a limited quantity of low-enriched uranium for another ten years, as reported by the New York Times.

Initially, Trump advocated for a 20-year suspension, concerned that a shorter timeframe might closely resemble the 2015 nuclear agreement, which he withdrew from.

The nuclear accord, established during Barack Obama’s presidency, restricted Iran from enriching uranium beyond civilian use for 15 years.

However, Trump now seems open to reconsidering his stance, aiming to resolve the conflict, especially after a heated exchange with his senior military advisors.

According to a report by the Wall Street Journal, Trump was reportedly in a state of rage, expressing his frustration to his aides for hours following the recent downing of a U.S. aircraft. During this crisis, he was not present in the room as his team received continuous updates on the situation.

On April 3, an F-15E Strike Eagle with two crew members was shot down by Iranian forces in a dramatic escalation of the war.

It was believed to be the first US plane brought down by enemy fire during the conflict, as images of the wreckage circulated widely on social media.

Following the news, images of the 1979 Iranian hostage crisis loomed heavily in Trump’s mind, according to the report. 

Trump reportedly demanded that the military retrieve the pilots immediately, but US troops hadn’t been on the ground in Iran since the government overthrow that led to the hostage crisis. 

Aides updated Trump at meaningful moments, a senior administration official told the outlet.

While one pilot was rescued seven hours later, the other remained missing until late Saturday evening, when he was finally saved in a high-stakes extraction.

It wasn’t until after 2am that Trump went to bed. 

The Daily Mail has contacted the White House for comment. 

Trump issued a statement on Monday morning claiming Israel did never ‘talked me into the war with Iran.’ 

‘The results of Oct. 7th, added to my lifelong opinion that IRAN CAN NEVER HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON, did,’ Trump added. 

‘I watch and read the FAKE NEWS Pundits and Polls in total disbelief. 90% of what they say are lies and made up stories, and the polls are rigged, much as the 2020 Presidential Election was rigged.’

‘Just like the results in Venezuela, which the media doesn’t like talking about, the results in Iran will be amazing,’ he continued. ‘And if Iran’s new leaders (Regime Change!) are smart, Iran can have a great and prosperous future!’

The report comes as peace talks hang in the balance with Iranian state news claiming the regime has ‘no plans’ for upcoming peace talks with the US. 

Pakistani and US officials have claimed that Iran is interested in further talks in Pakistan despite the regime’s public messaging.

Tehran said it was planning to attack US force in retaliation for the Navy’s raid on an Iranian tanker which tried to breach the American blockade on Sunday

Over the weekend, Tehran said it was planning to attack US force in retaliation for the Navy’s raid on an Iranian tanker which tried to breach the American blockade on Sunday.

US Central Command announced Sunday that sailors aboard the USS Spruance opened fire on an Iranian oil tanker after it failed to heed multiple warnings to turn back in the Strait of Hormuz.  

 Writing on Truth Social over the weekend, Trump said: ‘Today, an Iranian-flagged cargo ship named TOUSKA, nearly 900 feet long and weighing almost as much as an aircraft carrier, tried to get past our Naval Blockade, and it did not go well for them.’

The regime responded by stating it was ‘ready to decisively confront the American aggressor forces’, but postponed strikes at the last moment due to safety concerns, according to state media.

On Monday morning, Brent crude futures were up by 4.74 per cent at $94.66 a barrel, while West Texas Intermediate was 5.6 per cent higher at $88.55.
