United States President, , on Sunday accused Iran of deliberately frustrating negotiations with Washington and the international community, alleging that Tehran had consistently employed delay tactics in diplomatic engagements spanning nearly five decades.

In a post shared on Truth Social, Trump declared that Iran had been “playing games” with the United States and the world for 47 years through endless delays, warning that such actions would no longer continue under his leadership.

The development came shortly after Iran reportedly submitted its response to the latest American proposal through Pakistan, which has been acting as a mediator in discussions between both countries.

Trump also renewed his criticism of former U.S. President, , alleging that Iran benefitted financially and strategically during the Obama administration. According to him, Tehran received “hundreds of billions of dollars” as well as about $1.7 billion in cash as part of previous diplomatic agreements.

He further claimed that the Obama administration weakened longstanding U.S. alliances, particularly relations involving Israel, during negotiations with Iran.

Trump did not spare former President , insisting that Iran’s alleged pattern of delay and defiance had changed under his current administration.

The U.S. leader also accused Iran of involvement in attacks against American personnel and the killing of thousands of protesters over the years.

However, Iranian officials have repeatedly dismissed Trump’s remarks and negotiating stance. Speaker of Iran’s Parliament, , had earlier described Trump’s approach as an attempt to force Tehran into what he termed “a table of surrender.”

Iran’s deputy parliament speaker equally maintained on Sunday that the country’s position remained unchanged, stressing that Tehran’s policy was “neither compromise nor surrender,” but continued resistance against the United States.

The exchange of rhetoric comes amid heightened political debate in the United States over Iran policy and the wider Middle East situation.
