President Donald Trump reaffirmed Friday that any agreement reached between the United States and Iran will require Tehran to forgo nuclear weapons, declaring that his administration will not permit the Islamic Republic to acquire such capabilities.

Speaking with reporters aboard Air Force One, Trump expressed confidence in the current diplomatic efforts while insisting that Iran is in no position to develop a nuclear arsenal.

“We’re having great success with Iran. They’re not going to have a nuclear weapon. They’re in no position to have a nuclear weapon,” Trump stressed in a conversation with reporters aboard Air Force One.

The remarks come as Washington and Tehran continue indirect negotiations aimed at limiting Iran’s nuclear program and reducing tensions across the Middle East. Although discussions have been ongoing, the two sides have yet to finalize an agreement.

Earlier this week, Trump sounded optimistic about the prospects for a breakthrough, suggesting that a deal could be completed in the near future.

“I hear the negotiations with Iran are going very well. If a deal happens with Iran it could be done over the weekend,” Trump told reporters, adding that Iran is “close” to signing the papers.

Trump also stated that he wants Iran’s stockpile of enriched uranium transferred to the United States and indicated that he expects that objective to be achieved soon.

On Thursday, the president again emphasized that preventing Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons remains a non-negotiable condition of any agreement. He also criticized the policies of Presidents Joe Biden and Barack Obama, arguing that they encouraged Tehran’s nuclear ambitions.

“The Obama deal, I terminated that or they would have had a nuclear…that was a road to a nuclear weapon. Our deal – if we make that deal and it’s going well but who knows – if we make that deal it’s the exact opposite. They will never have a nuclear weapon. I’m not going to let them have a nuclear weapon,” he stated.
