US President Donald Trump said Iran has agreed to never possess nuclear weapons under the emerging US-Iran peace framework. He also rejected reports claiming Washington would provide Iran with a $300 million payment, calling them “fake news.” While the memorandum of understanding between the two countries outlines possible sanctions relief and the release of frozen Iranian assets, key details regarding verification of Iran’s nuclear commitments remain unclear. Vice President JD Vance said any economic benefits for Tehran would depend on compliance with the agreement, with further negotiations expected in the coming weeks. (PC: X)
