Reports from within Iran have suggested that the Iranian authorities have not agreed to some elements of a deal with Washington mentioned by US President Donald Trump in a social media post.
Reuters cited an Iranian source as saying the memorandum of understanding did not contain anything related to Iran's nuclear program, for example. The source also said the text had not been finalized.
The same was reported by the Fars news agency, which is affiliated with the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC), citing "informed sources" who described Trump's post as a "mixture of truth and lies."
It also noted that Trump's remarks made no mention of certain issues that are important to Tehran, such as a $12-billion payment from frozen Iranian assets and "establishing a complete cease-fire in Lebanon."
