Trump Says New Memo Clearly Bars Iran From Acquiring Nuclear Weapons

Trump Defends U.S.-Iran Agreement
United States President Donald Trump has declared that a newly negotiated memorandum of understanding (MoU) between Washington and Tehran explicitly prevents Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons, describing the provision as being stated “loud and clear” in the agreement. The remarks were made during the G7 Summit as discussions continue over the future of the U.S.-Iran relationship.

According to Trump, the agreement leaves no room for ambiguity and commits Iran to refraining from developing, purchasing, or acquiring nuclear weapons in any form. He also indicated that the text of the memorandum could be released publicly and potentially sent to the U.S. Congress for review.

60-Day Negotiation Window Begins
The memorandum is viewed as an interim framework that will launch a new phase of negotiations between both countries. Officials say the next 60 days will be crucial as negotiators work on key issues, including Iran’s nuclear activities, sanctions relief, and broader regional security concerns.

Trump expressed confidence that Iran is motivated to reach a final agreement, citing the country’s desire to restore economic ties and improve access to international markets.

Global Reactions Mixed
While supporters of the deal see it as a potential breakthrough capable of reducing tensions in the Middle East, critics have urged caution, noting that many details of the framework have yet to be finalized. Several international observers have stressed that the success of the agreement will depend on verification measures and the outcome of the upcoming negotiations.

The development comes after months of heightened tensions involving Iran, Israel, and the United States, with world leaders closely monitoring whether the proposed framework can evolve into a lasting diplomatic settlement.
