Trump says U.S. and Iran will sign a peace deal on Sunday
Source: Yahoo news
President Trump said Saturday that the United States and Iran will sign a peace deal on Sunday.
In a Truth Social post, Trump said Iran had agreed to give up its pursuit of a nuclear weapon "through purchase, development, or any other form of procurement," and that the Strait of Hormuz, the chokepoint through which roughly a fifth of the world's oil flows, would reopen the moment the deal is signed.
"The Deal is scheduled to get signed tomorrow, and immediately after it is signed, the Hormuz Strait is OPEN TO ALL," Trump wrote.

Iran has yet to publicly confirm the signing. The state-affiliated Fars news agency cited a source close to Tehran's negotiating team on Friday, calling claims of an imminent Sunday signing in Geneva "completely false." On Saturday, an Iranian foreign ministry spokesperson told state media that Iran's negotiators had no travel plans for Geneva or any other location in the coming days, Reuters reported. Tehran has also pushed for the deal to extend to a ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah, Iran's proxy in Lebanon a point Trump did not address in his Saturday post. An Iranian foreign ministry spokesperson went further Saturday, telling state media that the country's negotiating team was not planning to travel to Geneva or anywhere else in the coming days, Reuters reported.

(138,550 posts)DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) Iran's top diplomat said Tuesday that the tentative deal to end the war with the United States would require Israel to withdraw from Lebanon a condition Israel has already rejected and that could sink the agreement, leading to the resumption of all-out war.
The deal, which is between the U.S. and Iran, has not been made public, and officials have sometimes offered contradictory interpretations of what is in it. While Israel is not party to the agreement, it is part of the war: It joined the U.S. in launching strikes on Iran on Feb. 28 and has since fought the Iran-backed Hezbollah militant group in Lebanon and seized large swaths of that country.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said Israel's continued occupation of southern Lebanon would violate the deal.
"Without the withdrawal of Israeli forces from the territories they occupied during this war, the war has not fully come to an end," Araghchi said.

We and the world demand transparency and honesty, not lies and misinformation.
