Leaks of the Memorandum of Understanding Between Washington and Tehran

SadaNews - The American Bloomberg network reported that it obtained the text of the draft memorandum of understanding between the United States and Iran, which is expected to be officially signed in Switzerland next Friday. It indicated that it includes an end to the war on all fronts with a commitment to reach a final agreement within a maximum of 60 days, extendable, while Tehran maintains its current nuclear program.

The publication of this document on Tuesday comes amid increasing questions and debates within the United States regarding the content of this framework agreement and whether it includes significant concessions to Iran.

It was unclear whether the text published by the American network is the one that was actually adopted during the electronic signing of the memorandum that occurred on Monday, according to what U.S. President Donald Trump announced, pending official signing.

The American president has pledged to reveal the text of the memorandum "within two days" and even went so far as to offer to read it in front of the cameras. He stated he would send it to Congress for review.
