Trump to conclude G7 summit, vows military action if Iran MOU not followed

President Trump is scheduled to hold a news conference Wednesday to conclude the Group of Seven summit in Évian-les-Bains, France. The summit has been dominated by discussions surrounding a memorandum of understanding that Trump and Vice President JD Vance say they have signed with Iran.

“

there are some frankly diplomatic protocols that I don't fully understand.

The administration's decision to withhold the full text of the MOU has generated questions. Vance explained on "CBS Mornings" that diplomatic protocols requested by mediators, including Qatar and Pakistan, are the reason for the delay. He indicated the document would be released by Friday at the latest, expressing a desire to share its contents with the American public sooner.

“

The Qataris and Pakistanis, who have been helpful in mediating this agreement with the Iranians, they've asked us not to release the full text for a little while.

During a bilateral meeting with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi, Trump emphasized that the MOU is not a final deal. He issued a stark warning, stating, "If I don't like it, we'll go back to shooting at them, dropping bombs on their head. If I don't like it, if they don't behave, we'll go right back to dropping bombs right smack in the middle of their head."

“

It'll come out at the latest on Friday. We're actually trying to push them to get it out today because we want to tell the American people what's in this deal.

At the G7 gathering, leaders adopted a joint statement supporting the ceasefire with Iran and pledging to increase sanctions on Russia. Trump, who signed the statement, also playfully asserted his leadership, quipping, "I'm the boss," to fellow leaders. Following the press conference, Trump is slated to have dinner with French President Emmanuel Macron at the Palace of Versailles.

It's not final. It's a memorandum of understanding.
