Trump Denies $300 Billion Iran Investment Deal, Threatens Military Action

US President Donald Trump has dismissed reports of a $300 billion investment deal with Iran as 'fake news', warning that military force remains an option if Tehran doesn't comply.

The proposed fund, reportedly contingent on Iranian compliance with nuclear limits, would be Gulf-led or driven by private-sector interests rather than direct US government investment.

Trump emphasized that any potential financial assistance would not involve taxpayer dollars and made it clear that no agreement has been finalized.

In related news, the US sanctioned Nobitex, Iran's largest crypto exchange, on June 2, citing alleged ties to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, effectively cutting off Iran's most popular on-ramp to digital currencies from the global financial system.
