‘We will not use frozen funds to buy American products.’ This directly contradicts statement by Trump.

Trump says Iran will buy U.S. crops with sanctioned funds “pretty soon,” which Iran denies
President Trump said once again that Iran is expected to buy U.S. wheat, corn and soy — a claim a top Iranian negotiator has denied.

“All over the world, we’re opening up markets for the farmers,” the president said Thursday at a White House event with farmers. “And we have another one, a new market coming up, and that’s called the lovely country of Iran.”

The president continued during the Rose Garden event: “We’re going to be taking some of their money and we’ll spend it, and we’re going to be buying wheat, soybeans and corn. A lot of it. And that process is going to be starting pretty soon.”
