Trump: World will 'find out pretty soon' if Iran MOU signing will happen

US President Donald Trump suggested that the signing of a memorandum of understanding with Iran might not happen, speaking at a press conference at the G7 summit in Evian. He said deals are unpredictable and the world will 'find out pretty soon' whether the signing planned for Friday will proceed. Trump also indicated that bombing would resume if Iran does not 'behave.'

Over 900 extension workers were recruited under the J-AGROG programme, yet their motorcycles have been in storage for nearly a year.
