Trump claims breakthrough on Iran nuclear inspections despite Tehran’s denial

US President Donald Trump on Tuesday has declared Iran’s willingness to allow nuclear inspection “long into the future.”

On his Truth Social Post, Trump posted, “Despite their protestations and false statements to the contrary, coupled with the drumbeat of the Fake News, which is doing everything possible to make the U.S. Victory as small and insignificant as possible, Iran has fully and completely agreed to highest level Nuclear inspections long into the future (Infinity!!!).”

Speaking about the advantages of these inspections, Trump said, “This will insure Nuclear Honesty,” thereby paving the way towards future negotiations.

In the case of denial from the side of Tehran, the President warned, “If they did not agree to this, there would be no further negotiations! Based on this and other major concessions being made by Iran, I have agreed to allow the Hormuz Strait to remain OPEN, with no further Naval Blockade.”

Speaking to the press conference at Burgenstock on Monday, Vance remarked that IAEA nuclear inspectors would return to Iran to ensure the country’s compliance with the preliminary agreement stipulated in the MoU.

However, Iran’s Foreign Ministry and other state media outlets have explicitly denied that any new commitments regarding the nuclear program have been made.

Tehran has refuted claims that it has entered into formal negotiations regarding its nuclear program or committed to readmitting International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) inspectors to the country.

In his post, Trump also mentioned that $12 billion funds that the “US Treasury is releasing goes into escrow, controlled by the U.S.A., and will be used for the purchase of food and medical supplies, exclusively from the United States, including Corn, Wheat, and Soybeans from our great American Farmers.”

The Trump administration announced a temporary easing of sanctions to allow the sale of Iranian oil and petrochemicals until August 21 and receive the payment for them.

However, Iran has not yet responded to these claims.
