Trump tells why American farmers are happy over unfrozen Iranian funds: ‘Money will be used to…’ | Today’s news
US President Donald Trump shared details of the outcome of Iran-US talks held in Switzerland and said on Monday (local time) that unfrozen Iranian funds would be spent exclusively on US agricultural goods, including corn and soybeans bought from US farmers.
After the first round of talks in Switzerland, following the signing of their memorandum of understanding, Trump spoke of negotiating a “fair and reasonable deal”.
Trump said, “One of the things that we’re also doing, and it came out last night, is that the money that’s being unfrozen is going to be used to buy food, and the food is going to be bought exclusively through the United States from our farmers.”
Trump’s statement came after United States Vice President JD Vance and Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf concluded an intense round of talks in the Swiss resort of Burgenstock based on a memorandum of understanding signed last week.
On Monday, JD Vance also said that discussions focused on creating mechanisms that would direct those funds exclusively to the purchase of American agricultural goods.
