The U.S. and Iran released the text of an interim agreement their presidents have signed to end their war on Wednesday, with the U.S. President threatening to resume attacks and kill Iranian officials if they failed to honour their commitments. Iran's leaders did not address the new threats.
The memorandum of understanding stipulates that the Strait of Hormuz will reopen, with Iran agreeing to allow “safe passage of commercial vessels with no charge for 60 days only,” followed by negotiations with Oman to “define the future administration” of the trade route.
Under the agreement, the U.S. will “terminate all types of sanctions,” will “make fully available for use the frozen or restricted funds and assets,” and will begin the removal of its naval blockade of Iran’s ports.
Iran also “reaffirms that it shall not procure or develop nuclear weapons,” with a mechanism to be “mutually agreed” upon relating to its “enriched material” stockpile.
One point in the memorandum is a commitment for the U.S. to work with regional partners to develop a plan for at least $300 billion to be distributed to Iran for “reconstruction and economic development.”
