Punchbowl News: “Trump spent part of Sunday calling reporters to talk about the deal, including The New York Times, Fox News and Axios, telling them how historic this agreement will be for the United States and the region. According to what Trump told the NYT, his campaign against Iran ‘remade the Middle East in America’s favor.'”
“Yet what Trump and top administration officials really have is a 60-day extension of the current ceasefire while they negotiate over the Islamic Republic’s nuclear program. Trump suggested he might agree to a 15- or 20-year suspension of Iran’s uranium enrichment program in return for sanctions relief, per the NYT. He also threatened renewed U.S. attacks on Iran unless a permanent accord is reached.”
“There are some differences between what U.S. and Iranian officials say is in the agreement. Senior American officials strongly denied reports of a $12 billion U.S. payment to Iran as part of the deal.”
