US EditionTrump says Iran gave the US ‘a very big present’ related to oil and gas
Trump said Iran offered a major oil and gas concession tied to the Strait of Hormuz as part of disputed negotiations to end hostilities, with US envoys involved in talks.
- On Tuesday, President Donald Trump announced Iran provided a "very big present" related to oil and gas, claiming Tehran agreed to "never have a nuclear weapon" during ongoing negotiations to end the conflict.
- Trump recently postponed threatened attacks on Iranian power plants for five days, creating diplomatic space amid the four-week conflict that has disrupted global oil supplies and increased market volatility.
- Denying any talks, an Iranian military spokesperson stated forces will fight "until complete victory," directly contradicting the administration's claims of a diplomatic breakthrough and pouring cold water on negotiations.
- Brent crude prices dropped more than 10 percent following the announcement, while Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif offered to host formal peace talks between the U.S. and Iran.
- While Trump claims "we have, really, a regime change" in Tehran, the situation remains contested as independent confirmation of any agreement with the U.S. is currently lacking and Iran maintains defiance.
