White House Denies ‘Leaked’ Text of Iran Deal: ‘Does Not Reflect’ Agreement
Breitbart ^ | 06-17-2025 | By Frances Martel (Breitbart)

Posted on 06/17/2026 7:13:16 PM PDT by Responsibility2nd

White House Communications Director Steven Cheung denied that a text circulating in multiple mainstream media outlets late on Tuesday was an accurate text of the ultimate draft of a memorandum of understanding between Iran and America to end the current war and pave the way for nuclear negotiations.

CNN, Bloomberg, and the Saudi news agency al-Arabiya published a 14-point text they claimed to have obtained from involved officials of the “memorandum of understanding” on Tuesday. While many of the provisions therein were agreed-upon terms that the White House has stated publicly would be part of the deal, such as the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz to commercial traffic, the published texts addressed other issues such as Israel’s invasion of Lebanon and an alleged $300 billion investment fund for Iran.

A senior White House official confirmed on Monday that an agreement had been signed by American and Iranian officials, formally ending Operation Epic Fury — the American engagement that eliminated “supreme leader” Ali Khamenei and a host of other top Iranian officials. A formal signing ceremony is reportedly scheduled to take place in Switzerland on Friday, after which President Donald Trump has stated he would publish the full text of the memorandum.

That text, Cheung clarified on Wednesday, was not the text published by various outlets on Tuesday.

“The supposed text of the MOU that was obtained by CNN does not reflect the language of the actual MOU,” he wrote on social media.

Speaking at the G7 summit in France, President Trump told reporters that the memorandum did not include a $300 billion fund for Iran, contrary to the texts “leaked” on Tuesday.

All day long we've seen CNN, CBS and other liberal sites promoting the idea that the 14 point plan BY IRAN is being signed off on by Trump this coming Friday.

In fact..... 

That text, Cheung clarified on Wednesday, was not the text published by various outlets on Tuesday.

“The supposed text of the MOU that was obtained by CNN does not reflect the language of the actual MOU,” he wrote on social media.

Funny. The administration officially released the text Weddnesday, and it was identical to the leaked one.

Wasn’t Trump going to read it out loud to the press so we didn’t have this confusion?

I'm not seeing a transcript of the release at whitehouse.gov. Do you have a link?

I hate writing this about Trump because I truly think he has been one of our finest presidents. But sorry Mr. President I don’t believe you. I think he is back pedaling.

HUGE win for the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA - Iran will NEVER have nuclear weapons and a bunch of terrorists have assumed room temperature.

HUGE WIN for the Iranian people - the terrorist regime has been replaced, up to them to replace the regime with someone better.

HUGE LOSS for the Iranian terrorist regime - almost all dead.

HUGE LOSS for terrorism. Iran is at the table now, I expect they will stop their support for terrorism.

HUGE LOSS for Democrats - anything good for America is bad for them.

HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE VICTORY for DONALD J. TRUMP - President of PEACE. Now PEACE IN THE MIDDLE EAST is within sight. FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 5000 YEARS!!!

Groo is on this thread making the same false claims there is an official White House MOU

https://freerepublic.com/focus/news/4384225/posts

Use any AI you want. They will tell you there is none. Why Groo want to believe the lying media and think the White House is lying is a mystery.

The President signed the thing. Is it a stretch to have the White House release it?

The reason Trump won’t release his version of the MOU is because Qatar and Pakistan asked him not to.

Make of that what you will.

The terrorist regime is DEAD - ALL of them. It’s over. Time to rebuild. If America forgave Japan after Pearl Harbor then YOU can forgive Iran for whatever grief they have caused the country. The time for war is OVER, now it is time to rebuild.

I guess you could ask “what was stopping Japan from attacking Pearl Harbor AGAIN in 1955” and the answer is SHOCK AND AWE - and there’s NO POINT to any of that anymore. The terrorist regime of Iran is OVER - long live a FREE IRAN and PEACE IN THE MIDDLE EAST - first time in 5000 years. THANK YOU PRESIDENT TRUMP.

We’re $37 trillion dollars in debt, the last thing we need to do is to go blow up another middle eastern country. It’s not our fight, if Israel wants to go to war then they can go ahead. We have our own problems to worry about, and furthermore Donald J. Trump is the PRESIDENT OF PEACE, not the president of war. NeoCon warmongers will be disappointed once again.

” Iran will NEVER have nuclear weapons “

Only the truly delusional trust any Iranian regime to hold their end up.

“what was stopping Japan from attacking Pearl Harbor AGAIN in 1955”

The complete lack of a viable navy, for starters. American military occupation of Japan also prevented that.

The administration is definitely not proud of this “MOU” otherwise PDJT would be extolling it’s virtues on Truth Social. That is why today’s verbal read-out to reporters on a phone call was an “anonymous WH official”...they probably got told to clam-up RE: the MOU. We may never see an “official copy” from the WH even though the MOU was signed by both parties today.

BTW: the “U.S. Army Times” has the same version as everyone else (the phone call version):

https://www.armytimes.com/news/pentagon-congress/2026/06/17/read-the-14-point-memorandum-of-understanding-between-the-united-states-and-iran/

(Maybe Iran will release their “official copy” after J.D Vance shakes hands with the Iranian leaders/IRGC in Switzerland on Friday) ;-)
