Iranian state media released images Thursday morning showing President Masoud Pezeshkian signing the memorandum of understanding with the United States, as President Trump signed the same document in Versailles hours earlier. The publication provides visual confirmation from the Iranian side, following the official acknowledgment by the IRGC and the White House. The event marks the formalization of a bilateral deal that has drawn extensive international attention.
Iranian state media published images Thursday morning showing President Masoud Pezeshkian signing the memorandum of understanding with the United States, according to Asaf Rozentzweig (N12), who cited Iranian media reports. The publication provides the final piece of visual documentation from the Iranian side, following a sequence of confirmations that began overnight. The images surface hours after the White House released official footage of U.S. President Donald Trump signing the same document at a dinner in Versailles, France, alongside French President Emmanuel Macron (The Zioneer, 05:39 Jerusalem).
The thread of confirmations unfolded rapidly from Wednesday night into Thursday. At 00:34 Jerusalem (a cluster of five bulletins in one minute), The Zioneer reported that a senior US official had confirmed the deal was signed and in effect (version 2); that Trump confirmed signing during a Versailles dinner (version 3); that Iran's Foreign Ministry said defensive capabilities were not negotiable (version 4); that Trump personally confirmed aloud leaving Versailles (version 5); and that the White House issued a formal confirmation (version 6). At 00:34, Trump was also reported confirming on camera (version 7). By 03:45 Jerusalem, the IRGC officially confirmed Iran's president had signed, and the White House issued a statement (version 8). Visual confirmations followed: the White House released signing footage at 05:39 Jerusalem, and now, Iranian state media has released images of Pezeshkian signing.
The release of these images closes the documentation gap between the two capitals. However, the precise timing and location of Pezeshkian's signing remain unclear from the images alone; the Iranian media did not specify whether the signing took place in Tehran or elsewhere. The images have not been independently geolocated or timestamped by a third party. Also still open: the full terms of the memorandum have not been officially released, and Trump's claim that other countries have also signed on (The Zioneer, 23:07 Jerusalem, June 11) remains unspecified.
