President Donald Trump, currently in France for the G7 summit, emphasized that one of the conditions for signing the end-of-war agreement with Iran is the country's renunciation of nuclear weapons.

[Trump/U.S. President: Iran will never have a nuclear weapon. They will not be able to get their hands on a nuclear weapon, whether by purchase or development.]

He further warned that if Iran violates the agreement and attempts to possess nuclear weapons, it will pay a massive price, adding that a "hellish disaster" would follow.

Regarding criticism from U.S. hardliners who label the agreement a "surrender," Trump stated that he would release the full text within a few days and submit the agreement to Congress for review.

In addition, President Trump made his opposition to Israel's airstrikes in Lebanon clear.

He went on to warn Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that he must act with responsibility regarding the situation in Lebanon.

[Trump/U.S. President: We have had a very effective relationship. If it weren't for the United States, Israel would not exist.]

CNN reported that while Israel requested to see the end-of-war agreement with Iran, the Trump administration refused to grant access, citing concerns over potential leaks.

Trump emphasized that the U.S. will not invest any money in Iran following the memorandum of understanding.

Instead, the agreement reportedly includes a plan to establish a $300 billion private fund for the reconstruction of Iran.

Reuters reported that companies from around the world, including those in South Korea, have agreed to raise over $150 billion in funds.

Meanwhile, The Wall Street Journal reported that the U.S. has decided to immediately implement sanctions waivers on oil sales following the signing of the end-of-war agreement with Iran.
