Iran is reaching a final agreement with the United States, accepting Washington’s key condition not to acquire nuclear weapons. Reuters brings significant revelations about the content of the memorandum of understanding being formed between the US and Iran, citing a senior Iranian official. According to the source, the draft includes a clear commitment from Tehran that it “will neither produce nor acquire nuclear weapons.”
The same official states that the agreement framework includes a series of critical arrangements:
Iran agrees to “neither produce nor acquire nuclear weapons.”
Washington reportedly accepted in the draft the reduction of “highly enriched uranium” stockpiles within Iran.
The implementation mechanism for this measure will be discussed within the next 60 days.
Meanwhile, as Reuters reports, until a final agreement is reached, Iran reportedly committed not to maintain the current nuclear status quo, including not expanding uranium enrichment and not broadening nuclear facilities. According to the same source, Qatari mediators traveled to Tehran this morning, aiming to facilitate reaching an agreement. This development occurs during a period of intense diplomatic activity around Iran’s nuclear program and negotiations with international partners.
The draft reportedly also includes:
Lifting all sanctions on Iranian oil for a specific period.
Resumption of flows through the Strait of Hormuz.
Release of $25 billion in frozen Iranian assets, including direct cash transfers.
