Event details

CBS, citing IRNA, reported Tehran would use the MOU window to negotiate while retaining its enrichment position and keeping enriched material in Iran, while also demanding a compensation mechanism for war damage. RFE/RL and Guardian kept the draft framed as state-media claims awaiting Iranian final approval rather than signed terms.

Context

The deal is not just a shipping switch; if enrichment, stockpile custody, and compensation remain open, a signature could freeze fire without settling the issues Israel and Washington say define the endgame.
