Washington (USA) - Following the surprising withdrawal from the negotiations in Ukraine, there is growing concern that the Trump administration could also fail to stop Iran from building a nuclear bomb. According to a report by the US news portal Axios , the Israeli military is preparing for the possibility of going it alone.

Even before the start of the fifth round of negotiations between the USA and Iran tomorrow (Friday), there are growing concerns about another war in the Middle East.

"Netanyahu is waiting for the talks to fail," Axios quotes an anonymous source from Israeli security circles.

The head of government expects Donald Trump (78) to be frustrated by the failure of foreign policy and give Israel the green light for an attack on Iran's nuclear facilities.

Many military experts are of the opinion that Israel is dependent on the support of the USA for a successful attack on the laboratories, some of which are hidden deep underground.

On the other hand, Benjamin Netanyahu (75) would hardly wait for the Mullah regime to complete the bomb, as Iran already has the necessary launchers for a long-range attack.

According to the Israeli insider, his country's air force is already training intensively for a possible attack, as the military and politicians consider the current situation to be favorable. After all, Israel took out almost all of Iran' s air defenses in a retaliatory attack at the end of October.

However, the risk of such an attack would be immense.

Not only could the military strike release nuclear material, which would have incalculable consequences for the entire region. The Israelis would also be putting their relationship with their most important ally and protecting power, the USA, at risk.

Around ten days ago, Trump's special envoy for the negotiations, Steve Witkoff (68), submitted a written proposal for an agreement to Iran. In it, Witkoff insisted that Iran completely cease uranium enrichment, including for civilian purposes.

However, according to the International Atomic Energy Agency, Iran had recently expanded its nuclear program. It cannot be ruled out that the project is "exclusively for peaceful purposes", according to a resolution by the agency.

According to the experts, Iran has already enriched radioactive uranium to up to 60 percent, significantly more than is necessary for the operation of nuclear power plants, for example. The final step on the way to the bomb could therefore be completed within a few weeks, they say.

Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi (62) responded to the US proposalon Wednesday: "Uranium enrichment in Iran will continue, with or without an agreement."
