President Donald Trump signed the U.S.-Iran memorandum of understanding overnight at the G7 summit in France, and Iran's Foreign Ministry reported that President Masoud Pezeshkian signed it electronically, according to a report. The signing follows hours of prior reports and visual confirmations from both sides, formalizing a bilateral accord that has drawn intense international attention.
Both sides have now officially confirmed the signing of the U.S.-Iran memorandum of understanding overnight. President Donald Trump signed during a G7 summit dinner in France, and Iran's Foreign Ministry reported that President Masoud Pezeshkian signed electronically. The confirmation closes a sequence of reports from earlier in the night — visual evidence first emerged at 05:38 Jerusalem (White House footage of Trump signing at Versailles with Macron), followed by Trump's signing confirmed at 05:38 Jerusalem by Amit Segal (N12) and again at 05:39 Jerusalem with the White House's official word. Iranian state media published images of Pezeshkian's signing at 05:57 Jerusalem.
The thread has moved from a single source — a Telegram message at 05:38 Jerusalem claiming the text was in Persian — to multiple corroborating channels: the White House, Israeli journalists, and Iranian state media. Earlier versions also carried a dismissive remark attributed to Trump via a Channel 14 report. The current update is the first in which both governments explicitly confirm the signing in a single account.
The Zioneer reported earlier this week that Trump told Prime Minister Netanyahu he was determined to sign the deal (Mon Jun 15, 00:07 Jerusalem), and that Trump claimed other countries had also agreed to the MoU (Thu Jun 11, 23:07 Jerusalem). The accord, described by Trump as a 'fortress wall' against an Iranian nuclear weapon, has been the subject of weeks of diplomatic maneuvers and conflicting signals.
It remains unclear exactly when Pezeshkian's electronic signature was applied. The current report does not specify a time, and no independent verification of the electronic process has been published. The text of the memorandum — including the language in which it was drafted — has not been formally released by either side.
