Iran Buys Time With Baghdad Talks

Six world powers resumed yet another round of talks with Iran about its nuclear program on Wednesday. The negotiations are taking place in Baghdad. No breakthroughs are expected in these talks. In fact, their only significance seems to be that they demonstrate Iran’s ability to buy more time.

Iran is trying to force the West to reduce sanctions. In exchange, it is offering to gradually address the concerns about its nuclear ambitions. Tehran has tentatively agreed to allow United Nations inspectors into a military base with suspected links to nuclear arms testing.

Israeli Vice Premier Silvan Shalom said that Israel is monitoring the nuclear talks, but he expressed wariness on the outcome: “From now on, we will look at those moves of the Iranians in order to find out if they really stopped the development of a nuclear bomb. As it looks now we don’t really rely on that agreement that will be achieved today in Baghdad between the international community and Iran.”

The Trumpet believes that Iran cannot be trusted with any agreement and that its stall tactics are an attempt to further its nuclear program. According to Bible prophecy, Iran’s nuclear ambitions will finally be stopped by military force, led by a European power.
