Context
The UN Security Council on July 20, 2015 approved an agreement aimed at restricting the Iranian nuclear program in exchange for the removal of sanctions from it. Tehran guaranteed that he would abandon the idea of creating nuclear weapons. For 10 years, in the case of Iran, the terms of the nuclear agreement are fulfilled by all restrictions and conditions that are in the UN resolution, had to stop the action. The United States, for its part, lifted part of the sanctions from Tehran.
However, on May 8, 2018, the then US President Donald Trump announced that Washington was coming from a joint comprehensive action plan (SVPI) by Iran, considering him “catastrophic”. According to Trump, Tehran deceived the world community, hiding the continuation of intelligence in the field of nuclear weapons.
During his second presidency, Trump ordered to bomb Iran’s nuclear facilities. This happened on June 22, 2025.
Trump claimed that “without a doubt” will consider the possibility of a new bombardment Iranian nuclear objects, if it considers it necessary.
