US President Donald Trump on Sunday defended his administration’s ongoing nuclear negotiations with Iran, while admitting that a final agreement between the two sides has not yet been completed. In a post shared on Truth Social, Trump dismissed critics of the talks and claimed that any future deal with Tehran would be significantly different from the nuclear accord negotiated during former President Barack Obama’s administration.

Trump said the proposed agreement under discussion would not resemble the 2015 Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), the multinational nuclear deal from which the United States withdrew during his first term in 2018. The former president has repeatedly criticised the Obama-era agreement, arguing that it allowed Iran access to financial relief while failing to permanently block its path toward developing nuclear weapons capabilities.

“If I make a deal with Iran, it will be a good and proper one, not like the one made by Obama,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. He further claimed that the previous agreement gave Iran “massive amounts of CASH” and “a clear and open path to a Nuclear Weapon.” Trump added that the current negotiations are “the exact opposite,” but acknowledged that the framework remains unfinished and largely undisclosed.

“Our deal is the exact opposite, but nobody has seen it, or knows what it is. It isn't even fully negotiated yet,” Trump stated. He also urged supporters not to pay attention to critics questioning the ongoing diplomatic process, referring to them as “losers” in his social media post. The remarks come amid increasing speculation in Washington over what concessions could be included in any future agreement between the two countries.

In recent days, reports have suggested that officials from Washington and Tehran have intensified discussions over a possible framework linked to Iran’s nuclear programme. While details of the negotiations remain unclear, the talks are being closely monitored by lawmakers, US allies in the Middle East, and international observers concerned about regional security and nuclear non-proliferation efforts.

The issue remains politically sensitive in the United States, particularly because Trump’s withdrawal from the JCPOA in 2018 marked a major shift in American foreign policy toward Iran. Since then, tensions between the two nations have fluctuated between diplomatic outreach and heightened confrontation, with repeated disagreements over sanctions, uranium enrichment, and regional military activities continuing to complicate efforts toward a broader settlement.
