On the 15th, President Pezeshkian said on his social media that after intensive discussions a large majority of the Iranian parliament approved the text of an Iran‑U.S. memorandum of understanding, which he called a test of the U.S.’s real resolve to respect the rights of the Iranian people. He said the Supreme Leader’s guidance secured clauses protecting Iran’s national interests. Pezeshkian described the drafted MoU as the product of months of talks and said if its terms are properly implemented it would be a proud national document.
