President Trump on Monday slammed the Iranian Leadership for giving “their usual blather” and claiming they are not negotiating with the United States after the President agreed to call off attacks to continue talks.
The President announced late on Saturday that he called off strikes against Iran after he was “asked by Iran, and other Middle Eastern Countries, to hold off any attack in that the perimeters of a deal has been agreed to.”
Trump further told reporters on Sunday that negotiations would begin on Monday afternoon after he agreed to call off strikes, which he said would have been “the biggest attack since World War II

However, Iran denied the assertion, according to CBS. Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Esmaeil Baqaei said on Sunday, “Our negotiations are with Oman and are focused on reaching an understanding on a route that will ensure the safe passage of shipping through the Strait of Hormuz.”
“Our goal is to determine, as soon as possible and in consultation with Oman, a route that will likely be temporary and will enable safe maritime navigation through the Strait,” he added, noting that they’ve had “constructive discussions over the past eight days regarding reaching an agreement on a new route.”
Baqaei further stated that the pre-war status quo of transit in the Strait “will in no way return to the status it was before February 28th.”
Trump responded to Iran’s claims, slamming Iranian leaders as “unbelievably duplicitous.”
“They ask for a meeting, some would say ‘beg,’ talks begin, with more scheduled in the immediate future, and they say, openly and proudly, that they’re not having any discussions, that nothing is being talked about, and they’re only dealing with ‘Oman.’ They then go on to give their usual blather in saying, the Strait of Hormuz will be operated powerfully by them, when it is already completely controlled by the United States Navy and our ‘Blockade’ or, as some say, ‘The United States Wall of Steel!’”
Trump further threatened to continue to choke Iran with the Naval blockade until “a Deal, or Total Surrender” is reached.
Full statement below:
Iranian Leadership is unbelievably duplicitous! They ask for a meeting, some would say “beg,” talks begin, with more scheduled in the immediate future, and they say, openly and proudly, that they’re not having any discussions, that nothing is being talked about, and they’re only dealing with “Oman.” They then go on to give their usual blather in saying, the Strait of Hormuz will be operated powerfully by them, when it is already completely controlled by the United States Navy and our “Blockade” or, as some say, “The United States Wall of Steel!”
Nothing gets through to Iran, unless we want it to, and nothing will get through, unless a Deal, or Total Surrender, is accomplished. Whether Iran wants to admit it or not, we are, in fact, talking of a solution to a problem that they have caused, for decades. It is very simple, IRAN WILL NEVER HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP
