Trump: US won’t rush Iran deal, talks constructive

US President Donald Trump said on Sunday that negotiations with Iran are moving forward in an “orderly and constructive manner,” while stressing that Washington will not rush into an agreement. In a post on Truth Social, Trump said he had instructed US representatives involved in the negotiations to take their time and “not to rush” because “time is on our side,” adding that both parties must avoid mistakes and ensure any deal is properly finalized. Trump also said the US blockade will “remain in full force and effect until an agreement is reached, certified and signed.” He contrasted the current negotiations with the 2015 Iran nuclear deal under former President Barack Obama, arguing the ongoing talks are designed to prevent Iran from developing or obtaining a nuclear weapon. “Our relationship with Iran is becoming a much more professional and productive one. They must understand, however, that they cannot develop or procure a Nuclear Weapon or Bomb,” he stressed.
