Members of Congress are calling on President Trump to release details of the U.S.-Iran agreement, finalized two days ago, as confusion and skepticism grows.
Details of the Agreement
Lawmakers from both parties are demanding answers from President Donald Trump as the details of the U.S.-Iran deal have yet to be publicly released. Trump told reporters he would like to present the agreement in a formal setting before releasing it.
Senior Trump administration officials said Iran agreed to destroy and remove its nuclear material, dismantle its nuclear program, stop funding terrorist groups, and reopen the Strait of Hormuz. However, Iran insists it will collect fees from some carriers, contradicting the US stance that Iran cannot toll the Strait.
A senior U.S. official told reporters the MOU includes possibly releasing Iran’s frozen funds and easing sanctions if Iran complies with the agreement. Complicating the deal further, Iran has recently demanded that Israel withdraw from Lebanon, a separate conflict that is now adding weight to the agreement.
