What happened
A new U.S.-Iran memorandum of understanding undercuts several major promises President Donald Trump made during the war. It does not limit Iran’s ballistic missiles or proxies, and it only grants temporary fee-free passage through the Strait of Hormuz.
- 01The memorandum omits Trump’s promised limits on Iran’s missile arsenal.
- 02Iran’s proxies are not restricted in the text.
- 03Hormuz is fee-free for only 60 days, not permanently.
- 04Trump’s regime-change rhetoric did not translate into a political shift in Iran.
