US releases the formal text of the Iran agreement, which has already been signed

  • Iran is agreeing, at a minimum, to destroy its enriched uranium stockpile through downblending
  • Iran is stating that it will destroy enriched uranium
  • If we get a final deal and if the Iranians behave, we will permit sanctions relief
  • Sequencing of steps will be a big part of the talks
  • Meeting this weekend in Switzerland will be critical
  • We will do some things to build trust and see if we can pull off a deal
  • Netanyahu has not asked us for a copy of MOU
  • MOU has been signed but either side can walk away until a binding deal is in place

JD Vance earlier said the deal was already signed but there is still talk about some kind of formal signing in Switzerland this weekend.

As for the text of the formal deal, we will get it out as soon as possible. There have been several leaked versions floating around since the start of the week but Trump continues to deny they’re real.

“It’s a very strong deal,” Trump said at the G7. “Nobody knows what it is, but it’s very strong.”
