The Trump administration has told mediators it will not return to the terms of a memorandum of understanding reached with Iran in June, according to The Wall Street Journal, citing people familiar with the matter. The report said Trump is shifting toward economic pressure on Iran and is prepared to wait to see whether that approach works. The June arrangement had aimed to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and start talks on the nuclear issue and ending the war in exchange for sanctions relief, access to frozen overseas funds, and other measures. The agreement collapsed weeks later after Iran attacked ships. Iran has demanded that the United States resume implementing the deal, while the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said the strait would reopen only if Washington restores the agreement, grants oil-sale waivers, and ends the maritime blockade. Mediation efforts by Pakistan, Oman, and Qatar have made limited progress, and analysts say the June memorandum has effectively become invalid.
