Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian has described the Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed with the United States in June as the future cornerstone of Iran’s foreign policy, saying Tehran must ensure Washington honours its commitments under the agreement.

In a post on social media platform X on Sunday, Pezeshkian said the memorandum reflected the collective consensus of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council.

“The memorandum that was signed is the result of the collective wisdom of the Supreme National Security Council’s members, and all members are in sympathy with it,” he wrote.

The Iranian president said he believed the agreement would become the “centre of gravity” of the country’s future foreign relations.

“We must strive to compel the enemy to remain committed to what it has signed,” he added.

Pezeshkian added agreement’s successful implementation would strengthen security for Iran, the wider region and its allies.

The 14-point Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding was signed remotely on June 18, 2026, by Pezeshkian and US President Donald Trump with Pakistan acting as mediator.

The accord was designed to help end the conflict involving Iran, the United States and Israel, while creating a framework for broader diplomatic engagement and a long-term political settlement.

The memorandum took immediate effect, extending the ceasefire and committing both sides to negotiations on a comprehensive settlement.

It also included provisions related to lifting the US naval blockade, granting waivers for Iranian oil exports and restoring commercial shipping through the Strait of Hormuz.

Iranian officials have consistently portrayed the agreement as evidence that Tehran’s resistance had forced Washington to negotiate.

Pezeshkian has previously described the accord as a “historic document”, while Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf called it a “declaration of America’s defeat.”

Tehran has repeatedly maintained that implementation of the agreement will remain reciprocal, insisting it will fully honour its commitments only after the United States fulfils its own obligations.

Iranian officials have also rejected what they describe as any unilateral demands or attempts by Washington to back away from the deal.

Iranian authorities have further stressed that the memorandum was negotiated and concluded with the full backing of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and the Supreme National Security Council.
