      <title>Iran says draft US deal includes oil sanctions waiver, nuclear limits and asset release</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330460259/iran-says-draft-us-deal-includes-oil-sanctions-waiver-nuclear-limits-and-asset-release</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A senior Iranian official told Reuters a final draft of the memorandum of understanding with the US covered a ​range of issues, from Tehran’s nuclear work to reopening the ‌Strait of Hormuz and US waivers on oil sanctions, with a final deal to be discussed in the 60 days following agreement by the two sides.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Iranian official said the ​draft memorandum included the following:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;a id="strait-of-hormuz" href="#strait-of-hormuz" class="heading-permalink" aria-hidden="true" title="Permalink"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Strait of Hormuz:&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Iran immediately reopens the ​Strait of Hormuz to all commercial vessels, while the US ⁠lifts its naval blockade on Iranian ports. The lifting of the US blockade would ​begin immediately after the memorandum is signed and be completed within 30 days.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;a id="financial" href="#financial" class="heading-permalink" aria-hidden="true" title="Permalink"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Financial:&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;​The US agrees not to impose any new sanctions on Iran until a final deal is reached.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Following a final agreement, all US and UN sanctions on Iran would ​be lifted according to an agreed timetable.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The US will waive oil sanctions ​on Iran for a specified period, allowing Tehran to sell oil and receive revenue.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The ‌US ⁠agrees to release $25 billion of Iran’s frozen assets, including via direct cash transfers, cooperation among regional countries, and financial credit lines.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Washington, in coordination with its regional allies, would prepare a reconstruction and development plan for Iran, to ​be negotiated and agreed ​with Tehran within ⁠60 days.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;a id="nuclear" href="#nuclear" class="heading-permalink" aria-hidden="true" title="Permalink"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Nuclear:&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Tehran agrees that it will neither produce nor acquire nuclear weapons.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Pending a final agreement, Iran would maintain ​the current status of its nuclear programme, refraining from further ​uranium enrichment ⁠and expansion of nuclear facilities.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The United States agrees to allow Iran to dilute its stockpile of highly enriched uranium on Iranian soil under a future comprehensive ⁠agreement.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Iran’s ​nuclear programme, uranium enrichment activities and mechanisms ​for handling its stockpile of highly enriched uranium would be negotiated within 60 days of the memorandum ​and addressed in a final agreement.&lt;/p&gt;
