President Donald Trump said Wednesday evening that the Iran deal will be signed 'shortly, tomorrow, maybe the next day,' according to his remarks. The statement is the latest in a series of imminent-signing announcements by the president; no final agreement has yet been formally signed or confirmed by the White House.
President Donald Trump said Wednesday evening that the Iran deal will be signed 'shortly, tomorrow, maybe the next day,' according to his remarks. The statement, reported by several Israeli media outlets, lands as the latest in a rapid sequence of similarly imminent-signaling announcements on Wednesday alone: at 19:01 Jerusalem, Trump first said the memorandum of understanding would be signed 'within a short time' (Amichai Stein, i24NEWS). Moments later, at 19:01 in the same press conference, he confirmed that a copy of the MOU had already been sent to Israel (Moriah Asraf & Doron Kadosh, N13 / Army Radio; Amichai Stein). The present round of statements follows days of White House predictions: on Tuesday, Trump said the US would finalize a deal 'within days' and achieve 'total victory' within two weeks. On Monday, he said details of the agreement would be published soon and reiterated that sanctions relief would follow Iranian compliance. Despite the repeated predictions, no final agreement has been formally announced or confirmed by the White House. The timeline remains unclear; Trump himself offered a range—'shortly, tomorrow, maybe the next day.' One unverified Telegram report from earlier Wednesday evening characterized the deal as one 'we just made,' but no official confirmation of a signing ceremony has been released.
As The Zioneer has reported across the thread, the source quality has evolved from a single reporter's account (version 1, Amichai Stein at 19:01) to corroboration by multiple Israeli newsrooms (version 3, N13 / Army Radio alongside Stein). The unverified claim from the source earlier Wednesday that a signing had already occurred remains without White House confirmation. The wider context—drawn from The Zioneer's background coverage—includes Trump's repeated statements over the past week predicting imminent finalization: on June 11 he said a 'wonderful deal' had been reached and a signing in Europe was likely; on June 12 he told Axios the deal could come over the weekend or Monday; and on June 15 he said details would be published soon and sanctions relief would follow compliance. What remains open is whether a signing has in fact occurred (the unverified Telegram claim) or is genuinely imminent (Trump's latest statements), and which countries—beyond the US and Iran—have signed on to the MOU, as Trump claimed on June 11 without specifying.
