US Vice President JD Vance pushed back on what he described as “fake information” circulating about a potential U.S.–Iran agreement involving the Strait and Iran’s nuclear program, saying no cash payments or immediate financial releases are part of any deal structure.

Axar.az reports, in a post on X, Vance said the reported details of the negotiations are inaccurate and emphasized that U.S. conditions remain central to any agreement.

“I’m seeing a lot of fake information about a potential deal to reopen the Strait and end Iran’s nuclear weapons program,” Vance wrote.

“First, the Iranians are not receiving any cash, and no funds are being released for simply signing a deal or attending a meeting,” he added.

He added that any economic benefits would be conditional on compliance.

“The deal is structured to ensure that the US and its allies concerns are prioritized, and that if the Islamic Republic of Iran meets its obligations, then economic benefits will flow to them and to the entire region,” he said.

Vance also criticized media reporting and commentary on the negotiations.

"I've noticed a couple of bizarre things in the reporting over the last few hours. First, people who (rightly) said Donald Trump was a historic president a month ago now criticizing a deal based on unconfirmed media reports. Second, people who say you can't trust a word said by the IRGC who apparently believe anonymously sourced social media posts," he wrote.

He concluded, “The president is going to get us a good outcome, one way or the other.”
