Iranian news agency says $24 billion in frozen assets would be released under agreement with U.S.

An Iranian state news outlet said Friday that an agreement with the U.S., which President Trump touted the previous day as a "great settlement of the war," includes the U.S. releasing $24 billion of frozen Iranian financial assets.

Iran's semi-official Mehr News agency published what it said was a draft of the 14-point agreement Friday. It includes a stipulation that Iran's assets will be released during a 60-day extension of the current ceasefire, which would begin as soon as the deal comes into effect.

Iran's Foreign Ministry cautioned earlier that the regime had yet to fully commit to the agreement.

The document also states that half of the $24 billion in Iranian assets would be made available before further negotiations begin during the 60-day ceasefire extension.

Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesman said Thursday that the agreement still required approval by the country's government.

This is not a deal, but a surrender. Which side is surrendering?

The mullah’s must be really hurting for cash if they’re touting the release 24b. That’s small change. Trump found their achilles heal.

Trump is pulling a Obama, the true Trump believers should be very proud! Wonder if they will use Trump’s new plane to fly the money over?

No way this is accurate. If it is, this signals a complete and total US surrender.

It would be better to just flat out up and leave then agree to this.

This is what the Rest of World is like. What’s good for them is Good, what’s bad for them is Bad.

They are amoral. They are not Christians following a universal moral code.

It’s CBS News, “Iranian news agency” says. Wait till the details come out before throwing the President under the bus.
