Fact-checking Trump's statements on the pending Iran deal

Experts say the memorandum only starts 60 days of talks over Iran’s nuclear program and does not restore normal ties.

  • On Monday, President Donald Trump and Iran signed a memorandum of understanding, with Trump declaring on Truth Social that this "Great Deal will bring Peace and Security to the whole Region."
  • Critics argue Trump is solving a problem he created by escalating hostilities against Iran. Former Sen. Claire McCaskill noted he is "claiming credit for stopping a war he started."
  • Experts, including former Middle East adviser Aaron David Miller, dispute the peace characterization. Miller stated, "We are not and we have never been talking about peace with Iran."
  • The agreement initiates 60 days of negotiations on Iran's nuclear ambitions. Trump threatened to become "the guardian of the Middle East" in return for 20% of the region's revenues if talks fail.
  • McCaskill warned the policy damages America's global standing and military credibility. She added that rival leaders like Putin "can't believe" Trump's actions, while even some Republicans are reserving judgment.
