Iran’s state television reported that Tehran has secured a draft of the initial unofficial framework for drafting a memorandum of understanding with the United States.
According to the draft , Iran will restore commercial ship traffic in the Strait of Hormuz to pre-war levels, while the United States will withdraw US forces from Iran’s periphery and lift the naval blockade.
Iranian television reported that the plan, which excludes warships and calls for traffic through the Strait of Hormuz to be managed by Iran in cooperation with Oman, has not been finalized and that Tehran would not implement any measure without “practical verification.”
He clarified that if a final agreement is reached within 60 days, it can be ratified as binding by a UN Security Council resolution.
The memorandum of understanding is the fruit of indirect talks that began after the end of hostilities in the war that began on February 28 between Iran and the US, during which Pakistan played a mediating role between Tehran and Washington.
