US Vice President JD Vance has warned that Washington cannot be 100 percent certain Iran will honor its commitments under a new preliminary nuclear agreement. Speaking on CNN, Vance stressed that the deal is based on strict verification rather than trust, with sanctions relief and access to frozen assets dependent on Iran proving compliance. The framework reportedly requires Tehran to dismantle key parts of its nuclear program, destroy highly enriched uranium, and allow international inspectors back into the country. The comments come as the US pushes for a broader agreement while maintaining pressure on Iran to meet every obligation before receiving any benefits.

00:00Vice President Vance here to talk a little bit about what is in the Iran deal, the great peace
00:04deal that the President of the United States made last night. Number one, what this deal means is
00:09that the Straits of Hormuz are open immediately. You're already seeing oil and gas prices come down
00:14just over the past 24 hours. Number two, it ensures that Iran will never have a nuclear
00:19weapon. And we have to back up for a second and appreciate that what the President has done
00:23is completely decimated Iran's nuclear program. Now, this deal really has two pathways. On the one
00:30hand, if the Iranians make the long-term commitments never to rebuild, then they're going to be welcomed
00:35into the world economy. If, on the other hand, they try to rebuild that nuclear program, they're never
00:41going to have the resources in order to do so. So it's a win-win for the American people. We
00:46ensure
00:46Iran doesn't have a nuclear weapon either way. And now it's really up to the Iranians. Over the next
00:51few months, we're going to see if they're serious about dismantling that program for the long term.
00:56If they do, the President has said, we want their country to be successful. But what we know is
01:01that our country is successful, thanks to great presidential leadership and a lot of good decisions.
01:06We've had a fantastic relationship. We've worked on many deals together. I'm very happy to
01:14say very signed. The deal's all signed. And the strain is already partially opened. As you know,
01:21they're doing a little hunting for a couple of mines that they've already found. But it's
01:29essentially ships are starting to go out. Now on Friday, it'll be completely opened.
01:34We got along very well with Iran. It's a different set of leaders. As you know, the first set is
01:40gone.
01:41The second set is gone. And we found the third set to be very smart, strong, very smart. But
01:48we ended up making a deal. I felt badly that we had to go back on the attack for two
01:54nights. And I
01:55thought a third. But we made it before that happened. But I think a lot of great things are
02:01going to happen in the Middle East right now. And very importantly, the oil is plummeting down.
02:06And the stock market is shooting up like a rocket today, like record kind of numbers.
02:14And the oil has taken its biggest plunge. And we're into the low numbers. Not quite back yet,
02:22Kevin, to the extent. But we're getting close to the numbers we were before it all started. And
02:28the main thing is that Iran will not have a nuclear weapon. They fully agreed to that with strong
02:34policing powers. And they won't have a nuclear weapon, which is what it was all about, because
02:40they probably would have used it if they had it. So we had two big moments when they terminated the
02:47JCPOA. That was the Obama deal, the Barack Hussein Obama deal. And when I terminated that, it was very
02:54important because it was a road to a nuclear weapon. It was a horrible deal for the United
02:59States. It was a deal where billions of dollars was given to Iran. It was a deal where 1.7
03:06billion
03:07in cash was put on a Boeing 7, well, not a 7, 757, I guess, right? But it was put
03:15on a big,
03:16beautiful Boeing 757. They needed a Boeing 747, to be honest with you, because it was a lot of cash.
03:221.7 billion was taken out of the banks and given to Iran. And on top of that, tens of
03:29billions of
03:30dollars was paid. So they tried to bribe them to make a deal, and that didn't work. It never works.
03:38And we've done a great job. And hopefully it's going to be a good relationship, and we're going
03:43to get along. And if we don't, we go back to where we started. But I don't think that's going
03:49to be
03:49necessary. The Iran deal that we made is going to bring a lot of success to the world because
03:59the oil was really clogged up there for a while. He would call me on occasion, say,
04:03come on, please, let's go to the oil prices. But the oil is coming way down. So I'm very honored
04:08by it.
04:10I want to thank you for your help.
