Primary source Internal intake · 3 reviewed intake signals · Desk window 02:13

TL;DR

President Donald Trump confirmed that he signed the memorandum of understanding with Iran while dining with French President Emmanuel Macron at the Palace of Versailles, according to a report. Trump stated, 'It's signed. It's signed in Versailles.' The confirmation follows a week of competing claims about the status of the accord, with US officials earlier acknowledging a signed deal now in effect.

01 · THE DISPATCH

President Donald Trump has confirmed the signing of the memorandum of understanding with Iran, placing the event at a dinner with French President Emmanuel Macron at the Palace of Versailles. Trump stated, 'It's signed. It's signed in Versailles,' according to a Telegram report. The confirmation adds a specific venue and timing to what earlier reports described as a signed deal now in effect. As The Zioneer reported on June 11, a senior US official had earlier confirmed that Trump signed the agreement and that it is in effect, though the official did not release additional terms. Trump's latest statement provides the first public acknowledgment from the president himself about the signing location. The circumstances — a dinner at Versailles alongside the French president — suggest the signing may have been a diplomatic gesture during the state visit. The White House has not issued a formal statement on the signing ceremony, and details of the memorandum's full text remain undisclosed.
