Because they know that if American companies are in the Iranian market, the likelihood that the Europeans eventually would get sanctioned is far less. Now, what's interesting with all of this is that Trump is the kind of president that actually cares about this. He wants to expand American markets. This would never have worked with Biden. And it didn't work with Obama.

Obama didn't want to go that far, fearing that this would have generated an even stronger backlash from Republicans in Congress against the JCPOA.

And they are speaking Trump's language. If you take a look at the op-ed that the Iranian foreign minister had in the Washington Post a couple of days ago, it was interesting because he talked about a trillion dollar opportunity. I have no idea whether it's a trillion dollar opportunity. I suspect that's quite an exaggeration.

However, the Iranian market is a big market and it would be the largest market opening up to Western countries since the fall of the Soviet Union.

If they continue on this track and say that the red line for Trump is only a nuclear weapon and the Iranians are also reasonable and agree to significant restrictions on their program, then I think they can have a nuclear deal, at least a framework of a nuclear deal within 60 days. Wow. It will take a little bit longer perhaps to negotiate all of the details.

But ultimately, for this to work, it has to be done between the US and Iran. That will make it go faster. But that also requires that the Iranians agree to negotiate directly. The talks that took place in Oman were for about two and a half hours indirect. And then towards the end, they had a chat with each other.

The Iranians really need to immediately move towards direct conversations because that's how you can get things done fast. That's how you can build a bit of a rapport between the different negotiators, which is crucial for a deal like this. Trump is not known for his patience. He's pretty impatient. He wants to get this done fast.
