He surrendered to the Iranians! A deal worse than the Obama deal that he tore up!
Why the Iran deal is criticized and called surrender
“Let the oil flow,” President Donald Trump wrote on Truth Social Sunday as he
announced a deal with Iran to end the war and reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Speaking in France on Monday, he said “the deal’s all signed,” adding that the vital waterway is expected to fully reopen by Friday.
But the agreement has quickly drawn backlash over its lack of detail, reported concessions to Tehran, and the decision to defer key nuclear issues to future talks. While some have welcomed the prospect of easing global energy disruption, critics say the memorandum of understanding (MOU) leaves core questions unresolved.
Under the framework as reported, the U.S. would lift its naval blockade of Iranian ports in exchange for reopening the strait, while more detailed negotiations over Iran’s nuclear program and sanctions relief are expected over the next 60 days. That structure has fueled concern the deal delivers immediate gains to Iran while postponing the most contentious issues.
The deal is also expected to apply across multiple fronts, including Lebanon, raising the prospect of limits on Israeli military operations against Hezbollah—something Israeli officials have rejected.
