He said the agreement, which has been digitally signed by Trump and Iran’s lead negotiator, has now moved into the “second stage.”
However, the exact framework of the deal has yet to be made public and both the U.S. and Iran say a permanent truce has yet to be negotiated.
Trump said he will send the eventual text of the agreement with Iran to Congress for review. “I never thought about sending it, never even thought about it, but I will. I will send it to Congress,” he admitted.
He also said he will publicly release the text of the memorandum in a “formal setting.”
U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance has described the memorandum of understanding as “a very general” document, around “a page and a half” long.
Trump has heralded the guarantees he says it provides that prevent Iran from developing or purchasing a nuclear weapon.
“They’re not going to acquire a nuclear weapon. If they do, all hell will rain down on them, and they’re not going to do that,” Trump told reporters.
