Briefly

During his final stop in the Middle East, President Trump claimed that Iran had received a nuclear deal proposal from the US, a statement that was swiftly denied by Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi. Trump’s tour across Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE resulted in multibillion-dollar investment deals, while also raising hopes for improved Middle Eastern relations. Araghchi reiterated Iran's demands for the US to respect their rights and lift sanctions, emphasizing that Iran would not abandon its right to peaceful nuclear enrichment.
Iran's Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi stated, 'Iran has not received any written proposal from the United States, whether directly or indirectly,' highlighting the miscommunication surrounding US-Iran negotiations.
Araghchi emphasized Iran's position, saying, 'Respect our rights and terminate your sanctions, and we have a deal,' reaffirming their commitment to nuclear enrichment for peaceful purposes.
