TEHRAN: Claims made by US President Donald Trump about a potential agreement with Iran are a “mixture of truth and lies” and do not accurately reflect the draft terms currently being reviewed in Tehran, the IRGC-affiliated Fars News agency reported, citing informed sources. US President Donald Trump announced on Friday that he was heading to the White House’s Situation Room to make a final determination on an emerging deal with Iran, after noting that certain parts of the arrangement had already been mutually agreed upon.
The US-Iran negotiations remain highly unsettled, with Western reports suggesting that a draft framework is still awaiting Trump’s formal approval, while Iranian outlets maintain that no memorandum of understanding has been finalized or officially confirmed.
The strategic Strait of Hormuz remains central to the ongoing negotiations. While US officials are citing Iran’s possible reopening of the strait as a primary condition, Tehran officials continue to call their control over the vital international waterway a strategic source of leverage that will not be easily surrendered.
Core nuclear terms also remain completely unresolved between the two nations. Iranian officials have firmly rejected the possibility of transferring their enriched uranium stockpile abroad, whereas US officials insist that any final deal must conclusively prevent Iran from ever obtaining a nuclear weapon or bomb.
Military tensions continue to simmer despite the diplomatic talks, with the US Central Command (CENTCOM) accusing Iran of firing a ballistic missile toward Kuwait. In response, Tehran stated that its forces had targeted an American military base following a recent US airstrike conducted near Bandar Abbas.
A source close to the Tehran-Washington negotiations told Iran International that there are mounting doubts over whether Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf and the Islamic Republic’s negotiating team are fully coordinated with Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei.
Questions persist inside Tehran’s political circles over whether Ghalibaf and Iran’s negotiating team are operating in complete synchronization with Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei regarding the ultimate direction and concessions of the peace talks.
Meanwhile, messages emerging from inside Iran point to deepening domestic hardship for the population. Ground citizens are reporting acute medicine shortages, widespread layoffs, severe wage cuts, and stalled trade as the ongoing war and economic blockade continue to heavily squeeze daily life.
