In fact, the Foreign Minister rejected claims by Trump that Iran had agreed to transfer the uranium. Full stop.

"Tehran: Iran has rejected claims by US President Donald Trump that it has agreed to transfer its enriched uranium to the United States, with its Foreign Ministry strongly dismissing the assertion, Al Jazeera reported.

Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei said Tehran would not allow such a move under any circumstances, according to Al Jazeera.

"Enriched uranium is as sacred to us as Iranian soil and will not be transferred anywhere under any circumstances," Baghaei was quoted as saying by Tasnim news agency, as per Al Jazeera."

I first saw this in the Wall Street Journal but I can't get a substitute link to work.

Even if forced to give up the uranium , they shouldn't give it to the US.

Give it to Russia .

This is a (complete) screenshot off the above republicworld article:

Trump is a pathological liar, he likely started lying to his mother when he was four or five years old, and he has realized that lying benefits him, earns him illicit money, and seems to be a useful tactic. A percentage of his devotees will believe absolutely anything he says, and therefore everything he says should be considered suspect, and most likely fake and pure fiction.

Most people don't care what he says. Try going 48 hours without thinking about him.

Or one hour

The best Trump could get---and he needs to be lucky as well as have much better reps than Vance, Witkoff and Jared---is what Obama already got 11 years ago with the incredibly successful JCPOA...which even had EU nations on board. Iran was 100% compliant and out of the nuke game.

So all the bombing and destruction and deaths---including kids in Iran and Lebanon---all the fear and angst, all the crude price jumps and inflation was totally unnecessary, but merely a result of Trump having a terribly fragile ego.

MAGAs are incapable of seeing the waste, and attribute every criticism to hatred of Trump. Well, there are lots of reasons to hate Trump, and his war of choice is just the latest. I hate him for his attempts to subvert the 1st Amendment, his incredibly thin skin that has him attacking anyone who criticizes him, his attempt to overthrow democracy by sending his goobers to the Capitol on 6 January 2021, knowing full well they would be violent, for pardoning people who should have been napalmed, his constant whining about anything that doesn't go his way or anyone who doesn't worship him, for stealing and keeping in unsafe conditions classified documents holding the true identities of foreign human clandestine sources (putting them and their families at risk), for his vile misogyny and thinking he can "grab'em by the (small kitten)", for his constant lying, and for the great embarrassment he has brought to the US.

I happen to care about the US and its ideals, and while it has always been a work in progress toward a greater goal, Trump has single-handedly derailed it and set it back a hundred years, from which even SecDef Gen Mattis says the US might need a generation or two to recover trust in this world.

Others have no problem with any of that, and are fully enveloped by the absurdity of his moronic cult.

Up to you.
