MOU LEAK?
Saudi broadcaster Al Arabiya claims to have obtained the U.S.–Iran memorandum of understanding and has published its main provisions.
Key points reportedly include:
An immediate and permanent end to the war on all fronts, including Lebanon.
The United States would immediately lift its maritime blockade of Iran and prevent “any interference” in this regard.
The United States would withdraw all of its forces from the region within one month of reaching a final agreement.
Iran would end any obstruction of shipping through the Strait of Hormuz within one month.
The United States and its “regional partners” would commit to developing a plan for Iran’s reconstruction, funded with at least $300 billion.
If the final agreement is implemented, the United States would remove all sanctions currently imposed on Iran, including those connected to the United Nations and the International Atomic Energy Agency.
Iran would commit never to developing nuclear weapons. The issue of enriched uranium would be resolved in the final agreement. Until such an agreement is reached, the United States would allow the status quo of Iran’s nuclear program to remain in place.
The United States would approve exports of Iranian crude oil, including related banking, insurance, and shipping activities. In addition, Washington would release all frozen Iranian assets.
