Why Iran remains unfazed by Trump’s military threats amid renewed US-Iran nuclear talks

Nuclear talks are back on the table — but will they even work? As the United States and Iran gear up for negotiations today, tensions are already sky-high. Former President Donald Trump is back in the mix, pushing for a new deal — but on his own terms. Iran, on the other hand, is pushing back, demanding a mediator and refusing to trust Washington at face value. Trump has already issued threats, even before the talks have begun. Could this mean sanctions? Tariffs? Or are we staring down the barrel of a war? While there is talk of a deal, both nations are quietly preparing for military confrontation. Sina Toossi, a senior non-resident fellow at the Center for International Policy addresses these questions ahead of the high-level meeting.
