There's a lot going on in the world and I just wanted to weigh in that I think everyone is wrong. Whatever opinion you have, it's wrong and I want you to know that I feel that way and that others should speak up as well

🗞️ NYT: U.S. developing workarounds to funnel money to Iran without direct payments
With Trump refusing to authorize any deal that could be framed as direct cash payments to Iran, his team has been quietly developing alternative financing mechanisms, according to the New York Times, which cited three anonymous U.S. officials.
▪️ Gulf Arab states have been lobbied by Trump and his team to underwrite Iran’s postwar reconstruction, contingent on acceptable terms. A $300 billion investment fund has been discussed among Gulf countries to that end
▪️ A separate mechanism under discussion would unfreeze Iranian funds held by Qatar, which would then purchase medicines and feedstock and transfer them directly to Iran
▪️ Both steps would require U.S. sign-off, an official said
Trump’s aversion to direct payments stems from years of attacking the Obama administration over “pallets of cash” delivered to Iran as part of a financial settlement timed to the 2015 nuclear deal.
The most challenging sticking point in any formal deal, the officials said, remains the fate of Iran’s highly enriched uranium.
