Trump promises Iran deal will be 'wall against nuclear weapon'

U.S. President Donald Trump has characterized the developing agreement with Iran as a definitive barrier against the country acquiring nuclear weapons, stating it will serve as a "wall against the nuclear weapon."

“

The agreement of (Barack) Obama was one of the stupidest deals I have ever seen, a path to a nuclear weapon, and mine is a wall against a nuclear weapon, which they will not have.

Speaking at the G7 summit in Évian, France, Trump drew a sharp contrast with the previous administration's approach. "The agreement of (Barack) Obama was one of the stupidest deals I have ever seen, a path to a nuclear weapon, and mine is a wall against a nuclear weapon, which they will not have," he told reporters during a bilateral meeting with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

I've made deals all my life, some that were 100 percent closed and in the end did not materialize. With deals you never know, but we will find out pretty soon.

Despite his strong assertions, Trump cautioned that the full implementation of the agreement is still pending. "I've made deals all my life, some that were 100 percent closed and in the end did not materialize," he admitted. "With deals you never know, but we will find out pretty soon."

This did not start three and four months ago, but years ago, when I eliminated (General Qassem) Soleimani.

Trump linked the current negotiations to actions taken during his first term, referencing the elimination of General Qassem Soleimani. "This did not start three and four months ago, but years ago, when I eliminated (General Qassem) Soleimani," he stated, calling it "a huge event, some say the biggest in the Middle East in the last 50 years." He described the current understanding as a "very solid memorandum of understanding," noting it is a detailed document that will lead to a formal contract.
