President Donald Trump's overtures to Iran to jump-start talks on dismantling Tehran's illicit nuclear weapons program were met with rejection by the theocratic state. Trump threatened to bomb Iran if they don't make a deal, and added that the U.S. and Iran are 'talking.' Iran's President Masoud Pezeshkian said they don't avoid talks but that the breach of promises has caused issues. Indirect negotiations between the U.S. and Iran have not compelled Iran to abandon its pursuit of nuclear weapons.
