Trump denies report of Iran sanctions relief, calls it 'hoax'

hindustantimes.com —

President Donald Trump denied a report claiming he was considering sanctions relief for Iran, calling it a "hoax" and stating he offered Tehran "nothing" in a Truth Social post. The Axios and CNN reports, citing US officials, said Trump was open to releasing frozen Iranian assets in exchange for steps on Iran's nuclear program. Trump rejected the claims as "untrue" and demanded the stories be withdrawn. The denial comes amid the ongoing US-Israeli war with Iran, which began in February 2026. Trump recently rejected Iran's proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, while Iranian leaders say they remain open to talks.
