In English US Ambassador to NATO, Matthew Whitaker, stated that the US doesn't want Iran to collapse like Libya did under Barack Obama's administration. Ambassador Whitaker emphasized that President Donald Trump doesn't want Iran to become like Libya, a country that's been unstable for over a decade since NATO-backed rebels toppled Muammar Gaddafi in 2011 ¹.
The US recently sent warships to the Middle East to pressure Iran into agreeing to new nuclear deal negotiations. Whitaker told Fox News that Trump has made it clear Iran can't have nuclear weapons and should stop killing protesters.
The warships are meant to show strength and warn Iran, potentially reducing tensions if they comply with Washington's demands. Whitaker said Trump has given Iran an ultimatum and doesn't want things to escalate. The US is cautious about using force, unlike the situation in Libya under Obama.
Iran claims its nuclear program is peaceful and has no plans to build nuclear weapons. Tehran is open to international negotiations but is wary of US intentions, especially after Trump withdrew from the 2015 nuclear deal ² ³.
The situation is tense, with both sides engaging in verbal sparring. Iran's President Masoud Pezeshkian accused the US and Israel of backing protests in Iran, while the US sees Iran's nuclear ambitions as a threat.

Balozi wa Marekani katika NATO, Matthew Whitaker, amesema kuwa Marekani haitaki Iran ipate hali kama ile ya Libya chini ya utawala wa Barack Obama. Whitaker alisisitiza kuwa Rais Donald Trump haitaki Iran iwe kama Libya, nchi ambayo imekuwa na hali ya kutokuwa na utulivu kwa zaidi ya muaka mmoja tangu waasi wanaoungwa mkupa na NATO walipomuangusha Muammar Gaddafi mwaka 2011.
Marekani hivi karibuni ilituma meli za kivita katika Mashariki ya Kati kuwashinikiza Wa-Irani kukubaliana na mazungumzo mapya ya makepakeya ya nyuklia.
Whitaker alimwambia Fox News kuwa Trump amefanya wazi kuwa Iran haiwezi kuwa na silaha za nyuklia na inapaswa kuacha kuwaua waandamanaji. Meli za kivita zinalenga kuonyesha nguvu na kuonya Iran, jambo ambalo linaweza kupunguza mvutano ikiwa watafata matakwa ya Washington
Iran inadai kuwa mpango wake wa nyuklia ni wa amani na hauna mipango ya kutengeneza silaha za nyuklia. Tehran iko tayari kwa mazungumzo ya kimataifa lakini ina wasiwasi kuhusu nia za Marekani, hasa baada ya Trump kujitoa katika makubaliano ya nyuklia ya 2015.
