They know they&#8217;re wrong. They told us inside, and we have it down 100% inspections. And, if they were right, I&#8217;d cancel the meetings right now,&#8221; Trump said.  <\/p>\n<p data-node-id=\"2\">The president added that inspections would continue into &#8220;infinity,&#8221; but Iran denied making such a promise. This disagreement is central to the deal, as inspections are how the U.S. would verify Iran&#8217;s compliance with the agreement, which could lead to the unfreezing of Iranian funds.<\/p>\n<p data-node-id=\"4\">Trump also said on social media that, \u201cThe Money and\/or Sanctions that the U.S. Treasury is releasing goes into escrow, controlled by the U.S.A., and will be used for the purchase of food and medical supplies, exclusively from the United States, including Corn, Wheat, and Soybeans from our great American Farmers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-node-id=\"5\">Iran&#8217;s ambassador rejected this claim, and stated that Iran alone will decide how the unfrozen assets are spent, according to reports. <\/p>\n<p data-node-id=\"6\">These disputes raise questions about whether the U.S. and Iran are describing the same deal.  <\/p>\n<p data-node-id=\"7\">The Senate passed a resolution to block U.S. military action against Iran, requiring the president to seek congressional approval before taking further military steps.<\/p>\n<p data-node-id=\"8\">The Senate&#8217;s passage of the resolution, after failing nine previous times, reflects growing concern among Republican lawmakers about the war and the president&#8217;s deal to end it.<\/p>\n<p data-node-id=\"10\">The resolution passed as the Pentagon seeks an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wjcl.com\/article\/pentagon-80-billion-congress-iran-war\/71670640\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">additional $80 billion from Congress<\/a> to cover war costs. The Office of Management and Budget hasn&#8217;t yet submitted a formal request.<\/p>\n<p data-node-id=\"11\">Meanwhile, gas prices are decreasing as more ships leave the Strait of Hormuz, which is slowly reopening. A U.N. maritime agency has developed a plan to safely move stranded ships and approximately 11,000 crew members through the strait, but mines at the bottom of the waterway still need to be removed. The agency has yet to determine who will guarantee the Strait remains open if fighting resumes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"US and Iran dispute nuclear inspections and use of unfrozen funds President Donald Trump and Iranian officials are&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":174860,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[3],"tags":[1011,10209,44720,46629,13058,34,196,2855,44264,53493,44265,21386,864,44260,14067,683,53511,256,44263,44719,39868],"class_list":["post-174859","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-iran","tag-agriculture","tag-delegation","tag-demand-menu-subscribe","tag-email-weather-search","tag-iaea","tag-iran","tag-iran-war","tag-mcnd","tag-nowcast","tag-nuclear-inspection","tag-page","tag-peace-deal","tag-president-donald-trump","tag-privacy-notice-term","tag-sanction","tag-u-s","tag-unfrozen-asset","tag-usa","tag-use-nextfre","tag-weekday-news-watch","tag-wjcl"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@iran\/116802957239773976","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/174859","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=174859"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/174859\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/174860"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=174859"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=174859"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=174859"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
