Trump Makes New Claims About Potential Agreement with Iran Amid Ongoing Review in Tehran
While Iranian officials have stated that the US-proposed text for a potential agreement is still under review in Tehran and no official response has yet been sent to Washington, US President Donald Trump has once again made claims regarding the contents of the document.
Trump stated that Iran has agreed not to acquire nuclear weapons. This comes despite no official release of the details of the potential agreement’s text, and Iranian officials have not provided direct comments on this claim.
Senior officials of the Islamic Republic of Iran have repeatedly emphasized that the country’s nuclear program is peaceful in nature and that the production or use of nuclear weapons has no place in Iran’s defense doctrine. Reports published by the International Atomic Energy Agency have consistently highlighted ongoing monitoring of Iran’s nuclear activities.
The US president has also expressed hope that an agreement to extend the ceasefire and reopen the Strait of Hormuz will be reached within the coming week. The Strait of Hormuz is one of the key energy transit routes in the region, and any developments there could have widespread economic and security consequences.
Separately, a source close to the Iranian negotiation team told Mehr News Agency that the review of the proposed text is continuing with careful attention and sensitivity, and no final decision has been made. According to this source, past experiences have led Tehran to emphasize enforceable guarantees and practical benefits in evaluating any potential agreement.
Trump also claimed that Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei is involved in the negotiation process and even suggested the possibility of meeting him; a claim that has not been confirmed by Iranian officials.
In another part of his remarks, Trump referred to the tensions at the borders of Lebanon and Palestine and expressed dissatisfaction with the ongoing conflicts. He stated that in talks with Benjamin Netanyahu regarding recent developments, he has taken a tough stance.
Overall, given the ongoing reviews in Tehran and the lack of official announcements regarding the terms of the potential agreement, the future of this process remains uncertain.
