Trump says Iran nuclear deal is done, warns of ‘ultimate consequences’ for violations

U.S. President Donald Trump declared that a new agreement with Iran has been completed, warning that Tehran would face severe consequences if it attempted to develop or acquire a nuclear weapon.

Speaking during a bilateral meeting with Qatar’s Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani on the sidelines of the G7 Summit in Evian, France, Trump described the agreement as a major diplomatic breakthrough and expressed confidence that future negotiations would proceed more smoothly.

“We have our deal done with Iran, and it should be successful,” Trump said. “The only thing that matters to me is that Iran will never have a nuclear weapon.”

The President emphasized that the agreement prohibits Iran not only from developing nuclear weapons but also from purchasing them. He revealed that negotiators revised the language of the agreement to ensure both restrictions were explicitly included.

“They are not going to develop it, they are not going to buy it, and they are not going to do anything with it,” Trump said. “If they do, they will suffer unbelievable consequences.”

Trump also dismissed reports suggesting that the United States would provide financial assistance to Iran under the agreement, calling such claims “ridiculous” and insisting Washington has no obligation to invest money in the country.

Qatar’s Emir welcomed the agreement and praised Trump’s efforts to advance stability in the Middle East. He described the deal as an important step toward reducing regional tensions while acknowledging that additional work remains.

The U.S. President also highlighted growing economic ties between Washington and Doha, claiming Qatari investments in the United States could exceed $1 trillion.

Beyond Iran, Trump addressed other international issues, including the war in Ukraine and ongoing tensions involving Israel and Lebanon. He reiterated his desire to see an end to the Russia-Ukraine conflict and voiced frustration over recent military actions in Lebanon, urging greater restraint from regional actors.

The agreement is expected to move into a second implementation phase in the coming weeks, with officials expressing optimism that it could contribute to broader stability across the Middle East.
