Iran agreed not to develop or purchase nuclear weapons, Trump says

May 31, 2026, 03:06 GMT+1

President Donald Trump said Iran agreed not only not to develop a nuclear weapon but also not to acquire one through other means, describing the distinction as an important change in the negotiations.

"I would rather get a deal, because we can open the Strait immediately upon signing. The one guarantee that I have to have is that there will be no nuclear weapons. They've agreed to that, and it was very interesting. They said they originally said we will not develop a nuclear weapon," Trump said. "I said, well, what happens if you buy a nuclear weapon? So now it says we will not develop or in any way purchase a military weapon. That's a big difference. So we're getting what we want slowly, very tough negotiators, and it takes a long time, but I'm in no hurry."
