President Donald Trump said Thursday that Iran has agreed not to purchase, develop, or acquire nuclear weapons as negotiations between Washington and Tehran continue for a broader peace agreement.
Reporters asked Trump whether Iran had committed to abandoning its pursuit of a nuclear weapon or if additional negotiations on the issue would be necessary.
“They will not have a nuclear weapon. They’ve agreed to that,” Trump said. “There will be no nuclear weapon, which is a big part of the reason.”
Trump said Iran had agreed not to purchase, develop, or otherwise obtain a nuclear weapon under the terms being discussed between the two countries.
