An Iranian parliament member reportedly said President Pezeshkian and Speaker Ghalibaf lack the courage to declare the US-Iran agreement effectively destroyed and to apologize to the people. He added that the 'third war' has begun regardless of the label, and that the US has not released any funds under the deal, instead freezing about $1 billion in Iranian cryptocurrency assets.
The remarks by Iranian MP Jodenfri add to a growing chorus of criticism within Iran over the handling of the US-Iran agreement. The Zioneer has previously reported on the agreement, signed digitally in June, and subsequent conflicting statements from Iranian officials. Ghalibaf himself has denied claims by US President Donald Trump about the terms of the deal. Jodenfri's comments suggest deepening internal divisions over the agreement's status and the release of frozen funds. The reliability of the MP's claims cannot be independently verified, and the US has not commented on the cryptocurrency assets allegation.
