President Donald Trump lashed out at Axios Monday over a report that he was willing to offer Iran economic relief in exchange for concessions on its nuclear program.
“Axios just released a story that ‘Trump’ offered Sanctions Relief and Frozen Funds to Iran. This is untrue. I offered them NOTHING!” Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform.
“Axios’ story, like most others, is a HOAX, used only for purposes of satisfying their Trump Derangement Syndrome,” he added. “They should withdraw this fake story, IMMEDIATELY!”
Trump appeared to be responding to an Axios report earlier Monday headlined, “Trump offers Iran economic relief for concrete nuclear concessions.”
Axios reported that Trump was willing to provide sanctions relief and release frozen Iranian funds in return for “concrete Iranian steps regarding the nuclear program.” The report cited U.S. officials.
Axios, along with CNN and MS NOW, is part of Trump’s White House media ban.
