— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 In the past 48 hours, at least three very worrying claims were made by the Americans:

Claim 1: Iran’s initial $6 Billion in released funds will only be used for buying U.S. agricultural products.

Iran’s Foreign Ministry Spokesman, Ismael Baqaei, rejected this and said Iran’s Central Bank would use the funds ‘however it wants’.

Claim 2: Iran has agreed to accept the return of IAEA inspectors.

Iran’s Foreign Ministry Spokesman, Ismael Baqaei, also rejected this and said that inspectors won’t return to Iran unless there is a final agreement.

Claim 3: Iran has agree to hold negotiations on its missile program.

Denied by Fars News and Tasnim News Agency, but not by any official outlet or spokesman.

What does this all mean?

While we certainly shouldn’t take all of America’s claims at face-value, it has also become increasingly difficult to trust the words of the Iranian negotiators themselves.

With many people already being opposed to the MoU, the very least the officials should do is quickly dismantle and disprove such claims from the enemy. In fact, rejecting the claims is not enough—practical actions must be taken to ensure that no such false statements are repeated.

If measures are not taken, how will anyone know what to believe? We’ve experienced many times that Iran rejected making a concession, only to later admit that they did in fact make that very concession, just in a slightly different wording or with different technical details.

It is of utmost importance that this MoU is implemented completely, with no compromises, and with zero further concessions than what has already been granted. The only way to guarantee the correct implementation is not allowing space for false claims. With allowing false claims, you create more wiggle room for the Americans.

Whatever needs to happen, must happen. Whether that’s suspending negotiations, closing the Strait of Hormuz (for real this time), or using military threats as leverage. There is no other way to compel the U.S. not to engage in false narrative-making.

‘This MoU does not mention ballistic missiles.

It was never on the table; it was never on the agenda.

Iran's side never wanted to even discuss about it.’

—❗️🇺🇳/🇮🇷 NEW: The IAEA Secretary General, Rafael Grossi, says he will soon hold talks with Iran to determine ‘dates for inspections’

This comes despite Iran denying that it has agreed to IAEA inspections.

@Middle_East_Spectator

— NOTE: It’s likely that Grossi is talking about inspecting the Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant and Tehran Research Reactor

These two civilian facilities were already being inspected by the IAEA before the recent war, but inspections were suspended temporarily after the U.S. and Israel attacked in February.

Those facilities are not important to Iran’s high enrichment program, and are both located above ground.

The sensitive underground nuclear complexes at Natanz, Fordow and Esfahan have not been inspected since June 2025, for almost a full year now—and likely won’t be inspected any time soon, unless a final deal is reached.

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 President Trump on Truth Social:

‘Iran has informed the U.S. that, despite troublemaking Fake News reporting to the contrary, there are "NO TOLLS, NO INSURANCE COSTS, & NO OTHER CHARGES OF ANY KIND BEING SOUGHT OR RECEIVED BY IRAN ON SHIPS TRAVELING THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ. If this is false information, negotiations would end, immediately!

Additionally, no money has been given to Iran, or released from their money to them, by the U.S. We will be releasing some of their money, that is totally controlled by us, to our Farmers and Ranchers, for the purchase of Corn, Wheat, Soybeans, and more. Food is desperately needed in Iran, and we will be purchasing it for them exclusively from the United States. Thank you for your attention to this matter!‘

Time went so fast, the war consumed our minds. But now it’s really starting to sink in how great of a loss we truly experienced, it still feels so surreal.

The past 3 years have been very difficult. We’ve lost so many valuable personalities, it’s hard to keep count and have time to mourn. But in the end it’s all worth it. God bless the martyrs.

History will record Khamenei the Great.
