Iran’s Foreign Ministry has confirmed that a memorandum of understanding with the United States has already been signed digitally. Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei said teams will still travel to Geneva, but the actual deal is already done.
What’s actually in the agreement
The MoU centers on three major pillars. First, a 60-day ceasefire between the two countries. Second, the immediate reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. Third, provisions addressing Lebanon’s sovereignty.
Iran will coordinate security of the Strait alongside Oman, according to the terms of the agreement. Pakistan and Qatar mediated the broader discussions that led to the MoU. US Vice President JD Vance has endorsed the agreement’s legitimacy on the American side.
Phased sanctions relief is mentioned as a potential component depending on Iranian compliance, though the exact contours of what that relief looks like remain undisclosed.
