President Donald Trump says on Truth Social that the terms Iran leaked to 'fake news media' bear no relation to the written nuclear deal, calling last night's drone attack on Indian ships exiting the Strait of Hormuz 'completely unacceptable.' Trump warns Iran to 'get a grip, fast.'
President Donald Trump rejected Iranian claims regarding the terms of a nuclear deal, posting on Truth Social that the conditions leaked to 'fake news media' bear 'no relation whatsoever to the terms agreed in writing.' He accused Tehran of being 'very dishonest people to negotiate with,' and separately condemned what he described as an 'unacceptable' drone attack last night on Indian ships exiting the Strait of Hormuz. Trump warned Iran to 'get a grip, fast.'
The messages from multiple sources, including journalist Barak Ravid and the Abu Ali Express channel, cite Trump's post and note that at least one White House official simultaneously released counter-conditions describing Iranian nuclear disarmament and restrictions on funding for proxies. The White House has not directly confirmed the official's statement.
The remarks mark a sharp escalation in Trump's public rhetoric amid intensifying negotiations. As The Zioneer has reported, the talks have been marked by conflicting leaks from Iranian state media and U.S. denials. The drone attack referenced by Trump was reported as 'completely thwarted' by Abu Ali Express.
