< warm>US chairperson Donald ruff has in person signed a memorandum of understanding with Tehran, with a photo of the process sent to the Iranian side and the mediators, Axios reported, citing two US officials.
Iran’s Foreign Ministry confirmed on Wednesday that the text of the memorandum had been officially finalized and signed by both sides. Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei said the ceasefire and the end of the war in Lebanon were as important for Tehran as the provisions concerning Iran itself.
“For us, the ceasefire and end of the war in Lebanon were as important as Iran,” Baghaei said, according to Press TV. “The first clause of the memorandum mentions Lebanon three times, including respect for its territorial integrity and sovereignty.”
Trump reportedly signed the document while attending a dinner in France alongside President Emmanuel Macron on the sidelines of the G7 summit, Axios reported. According to one US official, a photograph of the process was sent to the Iranian side and to the mediators.
The White House has yet to publish the final text of the memorandum. Earlier on Wednesday, however, a senior US official read out the 14-point document to journalists, following days of speculation over whether the final version differed from a draft that had previously circulated online.
The readout largely tracked the leaked text, but included more detailed language on Lebanon’s sovereignty, the phasing out of the US naval blockade, the future administration of the Strait of Hormuz, and the handling of Iran’s enriched uranium stockpile under IAEA supervision.
