Iran Cautions on Agreement Timing Amidst Trump's Optimism

Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesperson, Esmail Baghaei, indicated that the signing of any agreement is not expected imminently, specifically ruling out Sunday. He suggested the signing might take place in the "coming days," according to the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB).

“

We must wait for the exact timing of the agreement's signing. It will not happen tomorrow, but it could take place in the coming days. Due to the other side's inconsistency, we must remain cautious in commenting on the process.

Baghaei advised caution regarding the ongoing process, citing what he described as "inconsistencies from the other side." He stated, "We must wait for the exact timing of the agreement's signing. It will not happen tomorrow, but it could take place in the coming days. Due to the other side's inconsistency, we must remain cautious in commenting on the process."

This statement directly contrasts with remarks made by US President Donald Trump. Trump asserted on his Truth Social platform that a peace deal was scheduled for signing on Sunday. He framed the potential agreement as a "WALL TO NO NUCLEAR WEAPON," aiming to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear capabilities.

“

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!

Trump also drew a distinction between his administration's approach and that of the previous Obama administration, highlighting that no money would exchange hands in his deal, unlike the "hundreds of billions of dollars" he claimed were paid previously. He further elaborated on plans to address nuclear material, stating, "At the appropriate time, when all is calm, we will go in and get the Nuclear Dust... and downblend and destroy it."

“

Our relationship with Iran is a much different and better one than previous Administrations have had. 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.
