Diplomatic correspondent Amichai Stein of i24NEWS reports on the emerging final framework agreement between the US and Iran, citing what he describes as a published draft. According to the document, the US would immediately lift its naval blockade on Iran and withdraw all forces from areas surrounding Iran within 30 days — without verifying implementation of the final nuclear deal. The US and 'regional partners' would commit to a $300 billion reconstruction plan for Iran; all UN and IAEA sanctions and resolutions would be removed by a date set in the final agreement. Iran would pledge never to produce nuclear weapons, with the enriched uranium issue resolved in the final accord. The US would also authorize Iranian oil exports and release all frozen Iranian funds.
Diplomatic correspondent Amichai Stein (i24NEWS) published what he described as details of a draft of the final US-Iran framework agreement at 20:11 Jerusalem. The document outlines terms that go significantly beyond the earlier interim Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) reported over the past week.
Key provisions according to the draft: the United States would immediately lift its naval blockade on Iran and withdraw all forces from 'areas surrounding Iran' within 30 days — a withdrawal that would occur before verifying Tehran's compliance with a final nuclear accord. A separate $300 billion reconstruction plan, involving the US and 'regional partners,' would be formulated. All UN Security Council and IAEA sanctions and resolutions currently in force against Iran would be removed by a date to be set in the final agreement.
Iran's core commitment would be a pledge never to produce nuclear weapons. The question of existing enriched uranium stockpiles would be resolved within the final accord. The US would authorize Iranian oil exports and release all frozen Iranian assets.
As The Zioneer has previously reported across several articles and bulletins since June 10, earlier accounts from US officials and Iranian sources described different versions of the agreement — including explicit requirements for removal of all enriched uranium, dismantlement of nuclear facilities, and curbs on Iran's missile program and proxy funding. The current draft as described by Stein omits explicit mention of these provisions, instead deferring them to the 'final agreement' stage. The authenticity of the published document cited by Stein has not been independently verified.
