Iran Signals Uncertainty Over Draft Agreement with U.S.
(MENAFN) Saeed Ajorlou, a member of Iran’s negotiating team’s media committee, announced Saturday that Tehran has not yet endorsed the final draft of a proposed accord with the United States and may withdraw if the other party fails to honor its obligations.
Speaking to Iranian state television, Ajorlou explained that, as of Friday night, the final text had not been ratified, though only minor differences remained between the sides.
"If the final text is approved, we will enter a 60-day process of discussions on the details," he said, noting that each of the agreement’s 14 articles contains annexes requiring further talks.
Ajorlou emphasized that mechanisms for implementation would outweigh the importance of the text itself, particularly concerning access to Iranian financial assets and the fulfillment of commitments by the United States.
He stated that the draft includes clauses permitting Iran to withdraw if promises are broken.
"If they do not lift the maritime blockade, we can leave the agreement. If they do not make those funds available to us, we can leave the agreement," Ajorlou declared, warning that violations such as breaches of the ceasefire or restrictions on Iranian funds could prompt Tehran’s exit.
