The US and Iran agreed on the final version of the memorandum

The US and Iran agreed on the final version of the memorandum
Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif announced that Washington and Tehran have agreed on the final version of the memorandum of understanding to end the conflict. 
«We can confirm the achievement of a final, agreed text of the peace agreement,» — he wrote on the social network X.
He added that Pakistan, which acts as a mediator in the negotiations between the US and Iran, continues to work with both countries to agree on the next steps.
According to Sharif, peace between Washington and Tehran has never been so close.
Meanwhile, as BBC writes, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi stated that the agreement with the US to cease hostilities in Iran is nearing conclusion and provides for the opening of the Strait of Hormuz. According to him, negotiations on the Iranian nuclear program will begin later.
American officials confirmed some details of the agreement, stating that the economic benefits for Iran after its conclusion will depend on Tehran fulfilling its obligations.
The war began with US and Israeli strikes on Iran on February 28, prompting Iran to strike Israel and US-allied states in the Persian Gulf, as well as effectively blocking the Strait of Hormuz — a key maritime route for transporting global oil and liquefied natural gas supplies.
Despite a ceasefire agreement reached in April, the US and Iran periodically exchanged strikes, including two rounds of retaliatory strikes on each other this week.
US President Donald Trump stated on Thursday that he canceled «planned strikes» on Iran because negotiators «just reached a great agreement» — a deal that is likely to be signed soon.
On Friday, Iranian media published some details of the alleged 14-point agreement, which, according to Trump, «has nothing to do with the agreed terms» and «has no relation to the truth.»
Hours after this, Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, whose country helped the parties reach an agreement, stated that the memorandum of understanding (MOU) between the US and Iran was agreed upon and is awaiting finalization.
Iranian state media quoted Araghchi as saying that among the members of Iran’s highest security body — the Supreme National Security Council — there are both «supporters and opponents» of the latest terms of the agreement.
