President Donald Trump said Wednesday that Iran is eager to reach a nuclear agreement with the United States, but warned negotiations have not yet produced a satisfactory deal.
Speaking during a Cabinet meeting, Trump said, “Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon,” adding that talks are continuing but the U.S. may “finish the job” if no agreement is reached.
White House Pushes Back on Iranian Reports
The White House said negotiations with Iran are “proceeding nicely,” while stressing that any final deal must prevent Tehran from obtaining nuclear weapons.
White House spokesperson Olivia Wales said Trump’s “redlines” remain clear during ongoing discussions.
Meanwhile, Iranian state television released alleged details of a possible memorandum of understanding between the two countries, claiming it could include reduced U.S. military presence near Iran and the lifting of naval restrictions.
However, the White House Rapid Response team dismissed the report as “a complete fabrication,” urging the public not to trust Iranian state media claims.
