Nuclear promises, unfrozen funds, and lifted sanctions part of US-Iran deal: Report

Published Updated



The United States and Iran are set to meet in Switzerland on Friday to sign a memorandum of understanding between the two countries that halts hostilities in the region for 60 days, ends Iran’s nuclear ambitions, and conditionally lifts widespread sanctions on Tehran, among other points.

The 14-point plan reported by Bloomberg calls for a ceasefire “on all fronts,” specifically noting Lebanon — which has been a sticking point for Israel, as it insists on being able to defend itself from Hezbollah attacks — functioning as a 60-day ceasefire to end all fighting in the region, and is extendable with mutual consent between Washington and Tehran.
