NEW YORK (VINnews) — A report on Axios states that CIA Director John Ratcliffe told President Donald Trump and other senior U.S. officials that intelligence assessments raise serious doubts about Iran’s willingness to make the nuclear concessions Washington is seeking in any final agreement.

“The concerns, which were raised during internal meetings ahead of the announcement of the memorandum of understanding between the United States and Iran, reflect broader skepticism within parts of Trump’s national security team regarding whether Tehran will comply with the terms of the deal,” the report said.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio and US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth shared Ratcliffe’s concerns and raised questions about the memorandum of understanding during the meetings.

Ratcliff and Rubio, according to the sources, said that based on the intelligence, they doubted Iran would agree to the US’s nuclear demands.

One source told Axios that “the intelligence reflects that the Iranian intentions are not in line with their commitments under the deal.”

US Vice President JD Vance and envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, on the other hand, reportedly advocated for the deal.

When Axios reached out to ask questions regarding the report, one White House official assured that the deal “meets all of the redlines that the administration has long articulated by ensuring that Iran can never possess a nuclear weapon.”

Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s jobs may be at stake if they continue to oppose President  Trump’s Iran deal, a senior White House official warned on Sunday.

The threat emerged in a report published on MSN, which revealed a bitter internal White House battle over the emerging memorandum of understanding with Tehran.

“The debate has been settled. Those who oppose it may pay a personal price,” a senior US official told the outlet.
