Fact check on “pallets-of-cash” claim from Snopes In short, elements of the claim are true but the social media posts and Trump's speech omitted key context. The Obama administration did approve a $1.7 billion payment to Iran in 2016 and later reporting said the money was delivered in foreign cash. The payment was not simply given or a gift to the Islamic Republic. It represented the settlement of a decades-old legal dispute regarding $400 million that Iran paid the U.S., before the 1979 Iranian Revolution, for military equipment it never received, plus roughly $1.3 billion in interest. As a result, we've rated this claim a mixture of true and false information.
