US President Donald Trump said Sunday that a proposed agreement with Iran explicitly prevents Tehran from obtaining a nuclear weapon, rejecting claims that the framework does not adequately address nuclear issues. In a post on Truth Social, Trump said the proposed deal "states, very clearly, that Iran will not have a Nuclear Weapon" and argued that the agreement contains extensive provisions related to Iran's nuclear program.
Response to reports
His remarks appeared directed at a CNN report suggesting the proposed framework did not adequately address nuclear issues, a characterization he strongly rejected. "It then goes on, in very strong and lengthy detail, to discuss various other aspects of Nuclear. In fact, that's what most of the agreement is about," he wrote. He also criticized some media outlets for misrepresenting the contents.
Nuclear guarantee
Trump has repeatedly said that any future understanding with Tehran must include guarantees preventing Iran from developing or acquiring a nuclear weapon. Regional tensions have escalated since the US and Israel launched strikes against Iran in February, with a ceasefire taking effect in April through Pakistani mediation.
