President Donald Trump said Thursday that the US had “ended the war” with Iran and that the two sides had agreed to a “very strong memorandum of understanding” to stop the fighting.
His comment to came after he canceled further strikes on Iran and suggested an agreement had been reached without detailing its terms. He also said he’d spoken to a number of leaders, including Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Gulf nation heads.
But Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmail Baghaei told Iranian state media that reports of an agreement with the US were “merely speculation” and said Tehran had not yet made a final decision on any deal.
Here’s what else Trump said:
Trump trumpeted a “great settlement,” suggesting it would be finalized in the coming days. He said he anticipated a signing ceremony soon, potentially in Europe, to be attended by Vice President JD Vance. Trump said it is a “very strong memorandum of understanding,” and called the deal a “little conceptual.” US military action pushed Tehran to agree to a deal this time, he said. He also said the US blockade of Iranian ports would continue “until this Transaction is finalized.” The US, Israel, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Turkey, Pakistan, Bahrain, Kuwait, Jordan and Egypt are nations involved in the approvals, according to Trump.What Iran said:
Trump suggested Iran’s supreme leader supports the settlement and has agreed “conceptually” to allow the US to secure nuclear materials and to top pursing a nuclear weapon. But Baghaei said “Iran has not reached a final decision regarding any agreement” and that “US actions are affecting the diplomatic process.” Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) cast doubt on Trump’s remarks, saying Iranian officials had not confirmed any such deal. Iran’s semi-official Tasnim news agency, which is closely linked to the IRGC, said Trump’s statements should not be taken at face value unless Iran officially announces an agreement. A hardline senior lawmaker in Iran warned that Trump may be acting deceptively in announcing a “great settlement” to end the war, instead urging Iran to continue its attacks. “The probability of deception by Trump is high,” said lawmaker Ebrahim Rezaei, spokesperson for the Iranian parliament’s National Security and Foreign Policy Committee.And what Israel said:
Trump’s announcement surprised Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu — who was in the midst of a security discussion about Iran, according to an Israeli source. Israel was not aware of any impending agreement with Iran, the source told CNN, or of any approval to an agreement, appearing to contradict Trump’s claim that the final points were “approved by all parties involved.” Netanyahu later spoke with Trump, and “expressed his appreciation” for Trump’s commitment that a deal would remove Iran’s enriched uranium, dismantle its nuclear infrastructure, limit its missile production and halt its support for regional proxies.What we know about negotiations: A Qatari delegation had been in Tehran this week for discussions, even as the US and Iran were trading strikes. US officials believe meetings between Iranian and Qatari officials helped resolve some of the remaining sticking points, a source said. Those mediators “hit some breakthroughs,” another source said.
