Trump Gets Birthday Wish with Iran Deal: What to Know

Iranian negotiators reject Trump’s Sunday timeline, while Israeli officials warn the proposed deal could limit action against Hezbollah and leave missile restrictions out.

  • Iranian media rejected President Donald Trump's claim that a memorandum of understanding with the United States would be signed on Sunday, calling the date a personal publicity event for his 80th birthday.
  • President Trump wrote on Truth Social on Saturday that an agreement was "scheduled to get signed" on Sunday, prompting a Revolutionary Guards-affiliated channel to criticize his "unusual insistence" on the date.
  • Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei rejected reports that an agreement was imminent, while media described the timetable as "completely untrue," maintaining Lebanon remains integral to any potential deal.
  • Israel launched airstrikes on suburbs in Beirut on Sunday, killing at least two people, violating a key Iranian demand that Israel halt its bombardment of Lebanon and threatening the potential peace deal.
  • Sami Nader of the Levant Institute for Strategic Affairs warned the military escalation could "torpedo the deal." If signed, the MoU would require a cessation of fighting in Lebanon, but ongoing violence complicates the timeline significantly.
