  "textContent": "ISLAMABAD: The US President Donald Trump said on late Monday evening that the deal that his administration is striking with Iran in Islamabad will surely be far and above the Obama-era agreement.\n\nTrump has said the deal being negotiated with Iran will be far superior to the Obama-era agreement, claiming the world will take pride in the new accord. The president said the proposed Iran deal will ensure global peace, security, and stability.\n\nHe described the agreement under Obama and Biden as the worst for American security, adding that billions of dollars were previously handed to Iran in cash, which he termed “shameful.”\n\nTrump said the new deal would bring stability not only to the Middle East but also to Europe and the United States.\n\nHe accused Democrats of weakening Washington’s position on Iran and said the US military operation against Tehran had progressed faster than expected. The president said that he is under no pressure to strike any agreement and warned he will not allow the US to enter into a weak or flawed deal.\n\nHe said he is working to correct “47 years of damage,” arguing that past administrations lacked vision and resolve. \"Iran operation would be as successful as the Venezuela operation, while accusing Democrats of downplaying US military achievements.\"\n\nHe also added that he is using military strength in a “smart and strategic” way to resolve complex global challenges, reiterating that the new Iran agreement would surpass all previous diplomatic efforts.\n\nHowever, another update suggests that US Vice President JD Vance has yet to confirmed his departure for Pakistan, as Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps reaffirmed that “Iran is ready to defend itself” following reports of a US seizure of an Iranian vessel in the Strait of Hormuz.\n\nAmid rising tensions, the second phase of talks in Islamabad appears uncertain, although behind-the-scenes efforts are continuing to ensure both sides remain engaged at the negotiation table by tomorrow.\n\nIt has also been reported that Iran’s delegation for the Islamabad “breakthrough” may include Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf and other senior officials. On the US side, the delegation is expected to include senior figures such as Steve Witkoff, Jared Kushner, Andrew Baker, and Michael Vance. Trump had earlier indicated that these officials would travel to Islamabad for further negotiations ahead of a looming ceasefire deadline.\n\nAs of now, neither US nor Iranian officials have officially confirmed their arrival in Pakistan, Reuters reported. The New York Post, citing Trump’s claims, stated that Vance, envoy Steve Witkoff, and his son-in-law Jared Kushner were already en route for the talks. However, none of these reports have been independently confirmed.\n\nTrump’s statement, issued twice in a single day, signals his readiness to engage in talks in Islamabad. Some reports suggest delegates may already have arrived in the country, reflecting growing optimism about a potential deal following his remarks, analysts believe.\n\nThe post Trump claims upcoming Iran deal will surpass Obama-era agreement appeared first on HUM News English.",
