Trump: Deal by Wednesday or War - Iran Says It Won't Hand Over Uranium to Anyone

Trump has issued an ultimatum: if a long-term deal with Iran isn't reached by Wednesday, the ceasefire ends and military action resumes. "The US will get Iran's uranium - either through a deal, or by force," the American president warned.

On the table sits a "three-page peace plan" and an offer to unfreeze $20 billion in Iranian assets in exchange for surrendering enriched uranium. Trump claims Iran has "already accepted most conditions" and agreed to have no nuclear weapons "for more than 20 years."

But Tehran tells a completely different story. Iranian spokesman Bagai explicitly denied Trump's claims: "Uranium enriched by Iran will not be handed to anyone." The topic of uranium transfer, he insists, was never on the table with Iranian authorities.

Two narratives, one question: who's lying? Trump talks about a deal "almost done," Iran says no uranium deal exists. The second round of talks is scheduled for Monday, and Trump hints he may personally travel to Islamabad for a signing - if it gets that far.

Wednesday is the deadline. If it passes without a deal, the world enters a new phase of escalation. And oil prices, which just dropped below $90 thanks to strategic reserves, could spike again. In the Balkans, that means one thing: brace for pricier fuel.
