President Donald Trump said on Truth Social that relations between the United States and Iran are becoming more “professional and productive” as both countries continue negotiations over Iran’s nuclear program.Trump described the talks as constructive and orderly, emphasizing that both sides are taking time to pursue a careful and verifiable agreement.

His remarks marked a notable shift in tone compared to his first administration, during which he withdrew the United States from the 2015 Iran nuclear agreement negotiated under President Barack Obama and launched a “maximum pressure” sanctions campaign against Tehran.

The article highlights the contrast between Trump’s current diplomatic language and his earlier actions toward Iran, including the 2020 drone strike that killed Iranian General Qasem Soleimani and nearly triggered a direct military conflict between the two countries.

Trump also criticized the Obama-era Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, repeating his long-standing claim that it would have enabled Iran to develop nuclear weapons.

At the same time, his description of the current negotiations closely resembled the cautious diplomatic language previously used by officials who supported the original deal.The report also notes internal disagreement among Trump allies.

Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo criticized the emerging agreement, arguing that it resembled the framework developed by Obama administration officials.White House communications director Steven Cheung responded aggressively, telling Pompeo to “shut his stupid mouth.

” Trump additionally suggested that Iran could potentially join the Abraham Accords in the future, referring to the normalization agreements between Israel and several Arab nations negotiated during his first term.
