US military to remain deployed around Iran until "real agreement" is complied with: Trump

President Trump says US military will remain deployed near Iran to enforce compliance with an agreement, warning of severe consequences if terms are broken.

"All U.S. Ships, Aircraft, and Military Personnel... will remain in place... until such time as the REAL AGREEMENT reached is fully complied with. - Donald Trump"

Washington DC, April 9

President Donald Trump on Wednesday said that the US military deployments will remain in place around Iran until the "real agreement" reached is fully complied with.

"All U.S. Ships, Aircraft, and Military Personnel, with additional Ammunition, Weaponry, and anything else that is appropriate and necessary for the lethal prosecution and destruction of an already substantially degraded Enemy, will remain in place in, and around, Iran, until such time as the REAL AGREEMENT reached is fully complied with. If for any reason it is not, which is highly unlikely, then the "Shootin' Starts," bigger, and better, and stronger than anyone has ever seen before," Trump said in a post on Truth Social.

Trump reiterated that the Strait of Hormuz will remain open and that Iran would not possess nuclear weapons.

"It was agreed, a long time ago, and despite all of the fake rhetoric to the contrary - NO NUCLEAR WEAPONS and, the Strait of Hormuz WILL BE OPEN & SAFE. In the meantime our great Military is Loading Up and Resting, looking forward, actually, to its next Conquest. AMERICA IS BACK!"

Trump also lambasted the media and claimed they circulated the "wrong" ten points issued by Iran.

"The Failing New York Times and Fake News CNN each reported a totally FAKE TEN POINT PLAN on the Iran negotiations which was meant to discredit the people involved in the peace process. All ten points were a made up HOAX - EVIL LOSERS!!! MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN," he said in a post on Truth Social.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt on Wednesday also cautioned the media against running false news.

"I've seen a lot of inaccurate coverage today from the media about these negotiations and these plans already, so let me be clear and correct the record. The Iranians originally put forward a 10-point plan that was fundamentally unserious, unacceptable, and completely discarded. It was literally thrown in the garbage by President Trump and his negotiating team. Many outlets in this room have falsely reported on that plan as being acceptable to the United States, and that is false," she said.

Leavitt said that the media must not run false news and propaganda.

"I would strongly advise the media against running with narratives that have no basis in fact. What Iran says publicly or feeds to all of you in the press is much different than what they communicate to the United States, the President, and his team privately. Never underestimate President Trump's ability to successfully advance America's interests and broker peace," she said.

The language used is so aggressive. "Shootin' Starts" and "next Conquest"? This isn't a video game, it's geopolitics. It undermines the seriousness of the situation and makes a peaceful resolution harder to achieve.

As an Indian, my primary concern is the safety of our diaspora in the Gulf region. Thousands of Indians work there. The US and Iran need to de-escalate for the sake of all civilians in the area. Our government should also be prepared for contingencies.

The constant blame on "fake news" is a distraction tactic. Whether it's the NYT or our own media, the public deserves transparent facts, not just accusations. What *is* the real agreement? That's what should be reported clearly.

"AMERICA IS BACK!" Back to what? Unilateral actions and threats? The world needs cooperative leadership. India has always advocated for dialogue and peaceful resolution of conflicts. This posturing helps no one in the long run.

A nuclear-armed Iran is a threat to the entire region, including our friends and our own energy security. If the US can ensure that, it's a good objective. But the method matters. Hope they achieve it through firm diplomacy, not war.
