Donald Trump threatens to attack Iran “hard” tonight, hours after saying he thinks the US-Iran ceasefire is “over”. Trump earlier said of the Iranian leadership: “I don’t want to deal with them anymore, they’re scum. They’re sick people, they’re led by sick people”.

Feels like he did this with China already?
Europe, Russia, and China must get involved in the negotiations even without the US. These countries could present different ideas and Iran trusts them more.
I don’t know your angle, but Iran, China and Russia pretty much share quite a lot in their ideas. They dislike democracies. But they love Shahed drones, which they aggressively export to Ukraine, Romania, Poland, Denmark, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar etc.
Also, Europe is a continent, not a country. We are not the same.
China and Russia sharing similar ideas with Iran would make Iran trust them. The EU is an entity, but I say Europe because I think the UK should be included.
I sort of get what you’re getring at, after reading some comments you made after your first one. But don’t lump Europen countries on the same list as those others like Iran, Ruzzia & China. China Iran and Ruzzia are allies . They are not friends of Europe.
The USA has created an unsolvable mess which started as a" problem". The damage will already effect the world for 5- 10 years to come,. European countries and the EU didn’t want anyhting to do with Trump’s plan, and they have been continuously negotiating with both sides. But we have a demented mad dog on one side, and a more radicalized Iran currently without any real central gouvernement -as the prior one was decimated- on the other. Its just an extreme shitshow. I’m not sure lack of ideas is exactly the problem. But Trump and his cronies being in charge sure is the biggest one.
America doesn’t keep its word, there is zero negotiation to be done its incapable of making and sticking to a deal.
It really comes down to the bribes and whether they think they can get more bribes
But Europe, China, and Russia could make a deal without the US.
A deal for what? Neither will use force to stop USA/Is real from doing anything.
It’s either unpopular, expensive or not worth the risk. EU will not stand up for Iran, Russia can’t and China…I don’t know.
If the EU, Russia, and China proposed deal is accepted by Iran, this would pressure Trump to agree especially if other countries such as Pakistan, India, and Saudia Arabia accept. If the Trump rejects the deal, the EU, Russia, and China would go it alone. Yes, there is risk of confrontation with the US, but if the war continues there are also risks.
Russia can fuck off
No amount of negotiating will work because the rogue state of israel started this mess and is intent on keeping it going.
Europe, China, and Russia are not as close to Israel as the US. They have less influence, but they can tell Iran they will cease any military business with Israel as part of a peace deal.
The nuclear deal with Iran that Obama led fell apart when Trump reneged, even though Europe, China, and Russia were all part of the deal and still in. In this case, Israel will keep attacking and has kept attacking even when the US has signed a deal, and since this has been the main issue, there cannot possibly be any deal that works under these conditions. The US is the largest supporter of Israel, so they’d have to pull that support and sanction before Israel maybe stops, but even with dropped support and sanctions, Israel is a death cult and may turn to using nukes to keep going.
Iran might be willing to accept a deal in which Europe, China, and Russia cease any military business with Israel.
If israel keeps attacking anyway, then what’s the point?
Unless those groups agree to potentially face off directly with US and Israel military, there is relatively little they can do to change current US and Israel behavior.
One would think sanctions, but Trump has effectively been doing his best to self impose sanction-like results already.
Stupidest. War. Ever.
And, that’s saying a lot.
