US President Donald Trump has sharply criticized Iran for allegedly leaking details of an emerging peace agreement, claiming reports published by Iranian media do not reflect the terms negotiated between the two countries.
In a post on Truth Social, Trump accused Tehran of misrepresenting the contents of a proposed agreement and questioned Iran's commitment to negotiations.
“The terms that Iran leaked out to the Fake News have NOTHING to do with the terms that were agreed to in writing,” Trump wrote.
“What they said, including their weak and pathetic statement on having a deal, bears no relation to the truth. Very dishonorable people to deal with. With them, there is no such thing as dealing in good faith.”
Trump concluded his message with a warning to Tehran, saying: “They better get their act together, and FAST!”
Netanyahu
The remarks came as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reiterated Israel's longstanding position that Iran must not acquire nuclear weapons.
“As long as I am the prime minister of Israel – Iran will not have nuclear weapons,” Netanyahu said in a statement released by his office.
He added that he and Trump remain aligned on the issue and claimed his government has played a key role in preventing Tehran from obtaining atomic weapons.
“President Trump and I are in full agreement on this issue,” Netanyahu said.
US-Iran Agreement Reportedly Near
Reports from international media suggest Washington and Tehran are moving closer to a formal understanding.
According to reports, a memorandum of understanding (MoU) between the United States and Iran could be signed in Geneva ahead of next week's G7 Summit.
The proposed document is expected to outline areas of cooperation and de-escalation but is not believed to constitute a final peace agreement.
Sources familiar with the discussions indicated that negotiations have intensified in recent days as world leaders prepare to gather for the summit.
Strait of Hormuz remains a sticking point
Despite speculation surrounding maritime security, Iranian media reported that no commitments regarding the administration or future status of the Strait of Hormuz are included in the proposed memorandum.
Iranian outlets said issues related to the strategically important waterway would instead be handled through separate discussions involving Iran and Oman.
The Strait of Hormuz remains one of the world's most critical energy shipping routes and has frequently been at the center of regional tensions.
According to reports, the breakthrough toward a memorandum of understanding was achieved during a recent visit to Iran by a Qatari delegation.
Discussions reportedly involved Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and senior Qatari diplomat Ali Al Thawadi, while contacts were also maintained with US representatives during the negotiations.
The developments suggest regional mediators continue to play an important role in efforts to ease tensions between Washington and Tehran.
