Trump Says U.S. Will Work To Retrieve Enriched Uranium With Iran, Which Has Gone Through 'Productive Regime Change'

President Donald Trump said on Wednesday that the U.S. will work to retrieve Iran's enriched uranium with the country, which has "gone through what will be a very productive Regime Change."

In a social media publication, Trump claimed there "will be no enrichment of Uranium, and the United States will, working with Iran, dig up and remove all of the deeply buried (B-2 Bombers) Nuclear "Dust."

He went on to claim that the material is under satellite surveillance and "nothing has been touched from the date of the attack."

"We are, and will be, talking Tariff and Sanctions relief with Iran. Many of the 15 points have already been been agreed to," Trump added.

In another publication he announced that any country "supplying Military Weapons to Iran will be immediately tariffed, on any and all goods sold to the United States of America, 50%, effective immediately" with no "exclusions or exemptions."

The countries have offered differing accounts of the terms of the ceasefire announced on Tuesday evening. Tehran claimed that it will collect fees to allow ships to go through the Strait of Hormuz and that, overall, the demands outlined in its document have been met. In contrast, the Trump administration claims the talks are centered around its 15 demands to end the war.

The countries appeared to pull back from the brinks hours before Trump's deadline to attack infrastructure used for civilian purposes, including power plants and bridges. Axios detailed that U.S. forces were preparing a large bombing campaign as the hour loomed. "We had no idea what was going to happen. It was wild," an official told the outlet.

However, the outlet noted, Iranian Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei instructed negotiators on Monday to move towards a deal. China also advised Tehran to seek an off-ramp. Talks are now planned for Friday in Pakistan, with Vice President JD Vance leading the U.S. delegation. However, large gaps between the countries remain and there is a real possibility that hostilities will resume.
