President Donald Trump signed the US-Iran memorandum of understanding at the Palace of Versailles in France, according to a video published by a source with access to the signing ceremony. 'Oil down, stocks up,' Trump says after signing, as per the footage.
Just after signing the US-Iran memorandum of understanding at the Palace of Versailles, President Donald Trump was captured on video remarking that “Oil down, stocks up” — a reference to the immediate market effects he linked to the accord. The footage, released Thursday morning, shows Trump seated at a formal dinner with the MoU document before him, as earlier ceremonial photographs had documented. This latest development follows a night of rapid, escalating confirmation: starting at around 00:34 Jerusalem, multiple thread items tracked the progression from a single source reporting the signing, to the White House’s official statement, to Trump’s own voice confirmation on camera, and finally to visual evidence from both the Iranian side and the French venue, to the point where a video now captures Trump’s post-signing commentary.
As reported overnight (00:34 Jerusalem), the initial thread began with an American official confirming the signing and the deal being in effect (version 2), followed by Trump’s own confirmation that he had signed during a dinner with President Macron (version 3). Iran’s Foreign Ministry then countered that its defensive capabilities were not negotiable (version 4). The White House issued an official confirmation (version 5), Trump confirmed on camera as he left Versailles (versions 6, 7), and the IRGC and White House both released formal statements (version 8). By 00:34, Iranian state media published images of President Pezeshkian signing in Tehran (version 9), corroborating the bilateral nature of the ceremony first reported by Abu Ali Express (version 10). A photograph followed capturing the signing moment (version 11), and the latest video adds Trump’s own market commentary. The corroboration thus evolved from a single source to multiple on-record confirmations from both the US and Iran.
The broader context — as The Zioneer reported on June 11 — has Trump initially announcing an “excellent settlement” and an agreement in principle on enriched uranium, which he described as “buried under a mountain, no one goes near it.” The formal signing at Versailles, which Trump himself compared to the 1919 Treaty of Versailles, has now been documented across multiple media channels, with the market response being the latest detail added.
What remains unverified is the precise text of the memorandum of understanding, or any official summary of its terms beyond the symbolic and market-related remarks made by Trump. The Iranian Foreign Ministry’s insistence that defensive capabilities are off the table suggests at least one point of potential divergence between the parties’ public postures.
