AFP reported on June 17 (local time), citing US officials, that earlier information revealed by the news site Axios stated that US President Donald Trump signed this document during dinner with French President Emmanuel Macron at the Palace of Versailles following the G7 summit.

Meanwhile, Iran's state news agency IRNA also quoted Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baqaei on June 18 as confirming: "The text of the Islamabad Memorandum has been finalized with the signatures of the Presidents - now it is time to verify the implementation of the agreement." Baqaei said the signing took place remotely and stressed that a formal signing ceremony "does not hold much significance" in Iran's plans.

This information was released after US officials provided the media with the contents of a 14-point MoU with Iran. According to the Vietnam News Agency correspondent in Washington, the document declares the goal of “immediately and permanently ending military operations” in the US-Israel conflict with Iran. Both sides commit to continuing negotiations to reach a more comprehensive “final agreement” within 60 days, with the possibility of extension if both sides agree.

The MoU also stipulated that the Strait of Hormuz would be reopened, with Iran allowing “commercial vessels to pass safely without charge for a period of 60 days,” after which negotiations with Oman would be held to “determine the future management mechanism” for this vital shipping lane.

Under the agreement, the US will “end all forms of sanctions,” “allow the full use of frozen or restricted funds and assets,” and begin lifting the maritime blockade on Iranian ports.

In addition, Iran “reaffirmed that it will not acquire or develop nuclear weapons,” and will establish a “mutually agreed” mechanism regarding its uranium stockpiles. AFP, citing a senior US official, reported that Iran has agreed to dilute its enriched uranium holdings. Meanwhile, the memorandum states that the “minimum method” for this matter will be “on-site dilution under the supervision of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).”

Another potentially controversial aspect of the MoU is the U.S. commitment to work with regional partners to develop a plan to allocate at least $300 billion to Iran for “ economic reconstruction and development.” U.S. officials have downplayed the significance of this provision, noting that the U.S. is not obligated to contribute to the fund.
