President Donald Trump denies he offered Iran sanctions relief or the release of frozen Iranian funds in exchange for nuclear concessions. The denial comes after an Axios report cited unnamed U.S. officials alleging Trump was willing to provide such relief if Iran took “concrete” steps related to its nuclear program.
Trump disputes the account, stating the claim is false. According to the reporting, he writes on Truth Social that “This is untrue” and that he “offered them NOTHING.” Reuters and other outlets describe his response as directly denying the reported linkage between sanctions relief and Iran’s nuclear actions.
The sources agree on the core points: an earlier report alleged a potential deal framework, and Trump publicly rejects that characterization. They also note that the Axios report does not identify the officials it quotes, leaving the allegation’s sourcing unclear.
