Trump’s main objection: The nuclear issue must be a priority
Officials familiar with Trump’s meetings with his advisors stated that the president is not against the idea of “postponing” the nuclear issue.
It is emphasized that Trump aims to resolve the nuclear issue before all other topics on the table and to completely eliminate Iran’s nuclear weapons potential.
