العاشرة | نقاط خلافية تهدد التفاهمات بين واشنطن وطهران

According to Al Arabiya sources, the final draft of the preliminary understanding between Washington and Tehran stipulates a 60-day extension of the ceasefire, renewable, during which negotiations will also take place on the nuclear issue to reach long-term agreements. Regarding the Strait of Hormuz, the draft stipulates its reopening without fees and the resumption of navigation, along with mine clearance, within 30 days. Tehran is obligated to abide by international law and guarantee the free passage of commercial vessels and oil tankers. The US, in turn, commits to easing sanctions on Iranian ports. The terms also include a ceasefire on all fronts, including Lebanon, in the second phase. The draft emphasizes that easing sanctions on Iran is contingent upon its fulfillment of these commitments. If Iran complies, it will be permitted to sell and export oil with specific exemptions from sanctions, to be implemented in several phases. The draft also stipulates the release of a portion of frozen Iranian assets according to a specific mechanism to be negotiated later. However, points of contention remain concerning the US military presence in the vicinity of Iran, as well as the detailed arrangements for managing the Strait of Hormuz. #Iran #USA #Agreement #StraitOfHormuz #Nuclear #AlArabiya
