Per Grok: Iran is proposing huge investment opportunities (“commercial bonanza”) for US firms in its oil/gas reserves, mining, and energy sectors. Aim: Tempt Trump with quick profits to secure a nuclear deal, lift sanctions, and avoid US attack—playing to his deal-making style amid tensions. Based on FT reporting from indirect talks.
Iran is aiming to tempt Donald Trump with financial incentives, including investments in its vast oil and gas reserves, as part of efforts to convince the US president to agree a deal on its nuclear programme and avoid war.
One person familiar with the matter described the prospect of a “commercial bonanza”, with Tehran seeking to appeal to Trump’s penchant for deals promising a financial dividend for the US.
