The President of the United States, Donald Trump, said this Tuesday (24) that the Iranian regime has accepted the American demand to “never” have nuclear weapons to end the current conflict in the Middle East. However, in the early hours of Wednesday (25), the Iranian Army denied that any agreement had been reached.
According to international agencies, Trump spoke about the subject in statements to the press at the White House, during the inauguration ceremony of Markwayne Mullin as his government’s new Secretary of Homeland Security.
The Republican president claimed that Iran is “talking to us and saying sensible things.”
“I don’t want to state anything in advance, but they agreed that they will never have a nuclear weapon. They agreed to that,” Trump said.
However, in the early hours of Wednesday, the Iranian Army refuted the American president’s claim that it was negotiating with an advantage with Tehran.
In a statement released by the Tasnim news agency, linked to the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, Unified Operations Command spokesman Khatam al-Anbiya claimed that the White House’s statements about negotiations with the regime are false.
“Do not call your defeat a compromise. The era of your promises is over. Nowadays, there are two camps: truth and lies. And no seeker of truth is seduced by your media waves,” the note states.
The Iranian Army also claimed that the price of oil will not return to what it was until the Iranian Armed Forces “guarantee stability in the region”.
“Neither will their investments in the region materialize, nor will they see the same energy and oil prices as before, until they understand that stability in the region is guaranteed by the powerful hand of our armed forces,” the statement warns.
Yesterday, the American press reported that Trump presented Iran with a 15-point plan for a ceasefire in the war between the United States and Israel against the regime, which began on February 28.
This Wednesday, two Pakistani government officials confirmed to the Associated Press that Iran had received the American proposal, despite Tehran’s claims that negotiations were not taking place.
