Claim 1: “originally it was ‘We will not develop,’ I said, ‘What about if they buy that?’ They went into two-week negotiations, but in the end we got that.”
SINGLE SOURCE
The evidence confirms that negotiations took place in 2025-2026 and that an 'Islamabad Memorandum' exists to end the 2026 Iran war. However, the specific detail regarding a 'two-week negotiation' to change the wording from 'will not develop' to include 'acquisition/purchase' is not present in the provided Wikipedia or web search summaries. This detail appears to be a specific quote or anecdote from the original text that is not corroborated by the external evidence provided.
