Donald Trump, Iran Missile Program, and International Agreements

Donald Trump brought up the idea that they could essentially "finish the job" in Iran in less than a week if Tehran doesn't behave reasonably. That was the line he used, while still hammering home that Washington’s main goal remains making absolutely sure Iran never gets a nuclear weapon on its hands.
He said something like, “Iran has been great. They are reasonable if they’re smart; otherwise, we’ll have to finish the job, which will take about maybe less than a week.” But then he added that they’re going to be okay, he thought. They’ll do what they have to do because we want it done.
Speaking about the Strait of Hormuz, the president brought up the flow of oil yesterday. Nineteen million barrels poured out of that strait it was described as a very beautiful place, an oil gush. He insisted this was important, saying Iran would never get a nuclear weapon, and they had aGreed to that deal.
Meanwhile, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian offered a different perspective on the whole missile situation. He pointed out that their own missile program is what actually stopped the United States and Israel from treating Iran the way Gaza has been treated.
He got pretty sharp about America’s record too. When talking about human rights, he dismissed it outright, calling it “a great lie.” He argued that if they hadn't had their own defenses, they certainly wouldn't have shown mercy to Iran and would have destroyed their power instead. So, he stated firmly, they will never negotiate over their defensive capabilities.
Pezeshkian also made a point about the aGreement between the US and Iran. He insisted that Iran’s missile program wasn't part of any memorandum of understanding. It wouldn't become something up for future talks. The discussion about missiles simply doesn't exist in that MoU, he claimed according to CNN reports.
Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif echoed this sentiment regarding the deal. He said the aGreement between the US and Iran didn’t actually cover Iran’s ballistic missile program at all. He felt there could be no double standards that some countries get missiles and Iran shouldn't have them. It felt like an impossible thing to swallow, that kind of duplicity.
Trump pushed back against Iran’s claims about inspections too. He rejected the idea that no visit had been scheduled for International Atomic Energy Agency inspectors. He insisted Tehran already aGreed to let the UN nuclear watchdog into the country. When asked when those inspectors would arrive, Trump didn't give a timeline; he just said they would get there “at the appropriate time.” No rush, he stressed.
Separately, the Senate stepped in. They passed a resolution calling for an end to President Trump’s military engagement with Iran. It passed 50 to 48. This was another pushback against the White House as things tried to move toward some kind of long-term aGreement with Tehran.
And on the logistics side, there’s the maritime issue still hanging over things. The International Maritime Organisation said an evacuation plan is in place for hundreds of ships carrying about eleven thousand seafarers stuck in the Gulf. They are trying to get them through the Strait of Hormuz now that a ceasefire aGreement was made between Iran and the United States.
