01 · THE DISPATCH

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian on Thursday evening reiterated his support for the recently signed US-Iran memorandum of understanding, calling it a 'historic document' and a signal that peace can be achieved through mutual respect, according to Kan 11 News's Arabs Desk.

The remarks, reported at 21:17 Jerusalem, echo Pezeshkian's earlier statements from Thursday afternoon, in which he described the MoU as a 'historic document' and a test of American commitment. The accord was formally signed overnight Wednesday at Versailles and Tehran, with three signatories — President Trump, Pezeshkian, and Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif — as confirmed by Pezeshkian's own post on X.

As The Zioneer reported earlier Thursday, Pezeshkian had hailed the agreement and signaled that Tehran views it as a framework for regional cooperation. The current statement adds no new details on implementation but reaffirms Iran's position of maintaining 'dignity and independence' within the accord. Israel has not joined the MoU; US Vice President Vance has expressed confidence that Jerusalem will eventually be brought into the framework.
