The purported draft agreement between the US and Iran aimed at ending the war will leave the rogue Islamic Republic in a stronger strategic position after the conflict is over, according to a nonpartisan think tank.

President Trump and Vice President JD Vance maintain that the prematurely circulating details of the 14-point memorandum of understanding between the sides is only a draft and subject to change. However if true, the version currently making the rounds “grants Iran significant economic relief,” which the regime would “likely” use to attempt to restart its missile, drone and nuclear programs, as well as the Iran-led “Axis of Resistance” military coalition, according to theThe institute points out that Iran could receive additional economic relief by honoring the terms of the MOU, but says it’s seen no indication the regime is willing to make any concessions about their nuclear program that would likely be included in the final agreement.

ISW voiced concerns about “ambiguous language” about the Strait of Hormuz in the draft, writing that Iran will likely seek to exploit the lack of clarity “to try to enforce its control over shipping through the strait. ” KEY TAKEAWAY: The leaked text of the US-Iran memorandum of understanding, if accurate, indicates that Iran has emerged from the conflict in a stronger strategic position.

⬇️🧵It also surmised that the regime is interpreting the phrasing “on all fronts” in a clause about a cease-fire deal to bind Israel to halt its military campaign against Hezbollah and withdraw from Lebanon.

“This interpretation is part of a broader Iranian effort to preserve Hezbollah by trying to secure Israel’s capitulation in Lebanon,” ISW writes.

Trump Denies Claims of a $300 Billion Fund and Speculates on Hamas' Role in Debating Details of Iran Peace DealTrump Denies Claims of a $300 Billion Fund and Speculates on Hamas' Role in Debating Details of Iran Peace Dealthe details of a proposed peace agreement with Iran have not been officially announced, yet it involves a $300 billion fund, which has been refuted by the president. Meanwhile, speculation continues about the sources of funding and the peace deal's impact on Iran and the world peace region of the Middle East, including questions about the possibility of financial compensation and the importance of upholding the terms of the agreement, as well as the role of Hamas and other groups in the debate over its details,according to statements by the U.S. Vice President and the news anchor who interviewed him about the fund - namely Ed O'Keefe of CBS Updates. It also recalls the past criticism of a similar fund arrangement in Obama's nuclear deal, which outraged many Republicans and cost him key support in Congress and elsewhere. The economic consequences of the war and U.S. sanctions on Iran are estimated to exceed $500 billion. The agreement also includes terms where Iran will surrender its enriched uranium stocks, submit to international inspection by nuclear safeguards, and pledge not to pursue or purchase nuclear weapons. Opportunely in a tweet the president stated his disappointment in the agreement deal with Iran. 'Iran has agreEd to not once have a Nuclear Weapon! Also, the story that the U.S. is paying Iran 300 million Dollars is Fake News, put out by the Dumocrats!!!' The agreement allows for stricter sanctions to be re-imposed again in the future if Iran violates any of its terms. The possibility remains that a trade deal with Iran could still emerge without a agreement on the nuclear program itself. The president stated that he still believes 'that a trade deal can emerge in the next year or two.' Vague remaining specifics regarding the issue.volaunt
