President Donald Trump has said that a peace deal with Iran is set to be signed on Sunday. Trump made the comments on Truth Social after the past week has seen much back and forth about a deal being proposed.
"Barack Hussein Obama’s Deal with Iran, the JCPOA, was an easy, beautiful, smooth road to a Nuclear Weapon, which Iran would have had six years ago, and would have used long before now. My Agreement with Iran is the exact opposite, A WALL TO NO NUCLEAR WEAPON! In fact, they no longer want a Nuclear Weapon, nor will they have one, either through purchase, development, or any other form of procurement. The Deal is scheduled to get signed tomorrow, and immediately after it is signed, the Hormuz Strait is OPEN TO ALL. Our relationship with Iran is a much different and better one than previous Administrations have had," Trump said.
"Unlike Obama’s Hundreds of Billions of Dollars in payments to them, including 1.7 Billion Dollars in green, cold cash, no money will exchange hands. At the appropriate time, when all is calm, we will go in and get the Nuclear Dust, buried deep under the powerful sunken granite mountains, thanks to our beautiful B-2 Bombers and their brilliant pilots, and downblend and destroy it, whether in Iran, or the United States. We look forward to working with Iran, and the entire Middle East, long into the future. Hopefully, this process will all work out quickly, easily, and smoothly. If it doesn’t, we have the ultimate alternative, hopefully never to be used again! Thank you for your attention to this matter!!!" he added.
Trump's post comes after he shared a statement from Pakistan's Prime Minister, Shelbaz Sharif. The country has served as a mediator in the negotiations between the US and Iran. "We are closer to a peace deal than ever before. With finalisation likely expected in the next 24 hours, Pakistan is preparing for the electronic signing of the peace deal immediately after, followed by technical level talks next week. We would like to thank United States of America and Islamic Republic of Iran for their ongoing commitment during the negotiations, and we extend our sincere appreciation to our brothers in the region for their support. We are confident that this historic peace deal will form a strong foundation for lasting peace," Sharif wrote on X.
Trump shared the post to his Truth Social account before making the post saying that the deal is set to be signed tomorrow. Although the president said it is scheduled to be signed, he made note that the US has the "ultimate alternative" if Iran does not follow through. The president's top priority has been to stop Iran from having or obtaining a nuclear weapon, something that Iran has said is a "red line" in their negotiations.
The possible breakthrough on the deal comes after Trump threatened to conduct bombings and strikes in Iran earlier this week, but called it off after Iran was feeling the pressure.
