Trump Signs Iran Deal on Paper at Versailles Before Dinner
Because nothing says high-stakes global diplomacy like scribbling your signature on a piece of paper in a French palace right before the appetizers are served.
So, Trump is in France, hanging out at the Versailles palace for a fancy dinner hosted by Emmanuel Macron. But instead of just sipping champagne, he decides this is the perfect moment to sign the paper copy of the US-Iran peace memorandum.
His Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, literally hands him the paper, and Trump signs it right there on the spot. This officially kickstarts the deal to lift the US naval blockade and reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
They already did the electronic signature thing earlier, and the big formal ceremony is scheduled for later in Switzerland. But apparently, waiting is for amateurs. If you have a pen, a historic document, and a lavish French palace, you might as well get it done before the soup gets cold.
Signing historic peace treaties on the knee at a gala dinner is definitely one way to keep the French waiters waiting.
