U.S. President Donald Trump's order to strike three Iranian nuclear sites this weekend has sent shockwaves through global diplomacy. The move, described by Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi as "outrageous," threatens to derail years of nuclear negotiations and escalate Middle East tensions. 💥
The Strikes: What Happened?
Trump called the attacks "targeted and precise," while Iran insists its nuclear program is peaceful. CGTN experts suggest the timing aligns with Trump's push to cement his foreign policy legacy before January's presidential transition. 🕰️
Why This Matters
With Iran vowing "everlasting consequences," the strikes could:
❌ Freeze nuclear talks indefinitely
🔥 Ignite proxy conflicts across the region
🌐 Reshape global energy markets
As one analyst told CGTN: "This isn't just about uranium – it's about redrawing geopolitical chessboards." ♟️
