Trump signs memorandum of understanding with Iran – media

The 14-point document was sealed “electronically” and has reportedly already entered force

US President Donald Trump has personally 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.
