Trump denies offering Iran sanctions relief and asset unfreezing

gazeta.ru (Russian) —

President Donald Trump denied a report that he offered Iran sanctions relief and asset unfreezing in exchange for nuclear program concessions, calling the Axios article false and demanding its removal. Trump stated on Truth Social that he made no such proposal to Tehran, dismissing the report as "lies" driven by anti-Trump sentiment. He had earlier confirmed new US-Iran contacts through mediators at a White House briefing. The US and Israel launched military operations against Iran on February 28, with a June interim agreement on a ceasefire and Hormuz Strait shipping later collapsing. Russian President Vladimir Putin called the truce "too fragile."
