Trump denies offering Iran sanctions relief for nuclear concessions

President Donald Trump denied reports that he offered Iran sanctions relief and the release of frozen funds in exchange for nuclear concessions, stating "I offered them NOTHING" in a Truth Social post on Monday. The denial follows an Axios report, citing unnamed US officials, claiming Trump was willing to provide sanctions relief and frozen Iranian assets for "concrete" nuclear steps. CNN separately reported similar preparedness for a final agreement, though neither outlet named its sources. The dispute comes amid a seven-month war that began February 28 with US-Israeli attacks on Iran, which has killed thousands and displaced millions. US and Iranian officials held separate mediator talks Monday, with Trump citing weakened Iranian nuclear capabilities as a war objective. Iran denies seeking nuclear weapons, asserting its NPT right to peaceful nuclear technology.
