President Masoud Pezeshkian told a banking conference in Tehran that every article of the memorandum of understanding with the US is in Iran's interest, and the achievements of the negotiations will be clear. The remark comes amid ongoing domestic debate over the agreement's terms, according to the single source.
President Masoud Pezeshkian addressed the 'Return of Banking' conference in Tehran on Sunday, stating that every article of the US-Iran memorandum of understanding (MoU) benefits the Islamic Republic. He said the negotiation achievements will soon be clear to all, according to a single source from the conference. The remarks continue a pattern of public defense of the agreement by Pezeshkian, who has previously stated that the Supreme National Security Council fully authorized the talks and that 'Zionist anger' at the deal proves its success. The speech did not address the reported $300 billion reconstruction fund or the missile and nuclear provisions that have drawn criticism from hardliners and from former US Vice President Mike Pence. The US position, as articulated by President Trump, remains that Iran is 'desperate' for a meeting and will receive 'not even ten cents.'
