Mojtaba aide declares victory over Trump? $300 billion battle erupts after landmark US-Iran MoU deal

The signing of the landmark U.S.-Iran Memorandum of Understanding has triggered a fierce political battle over who truly emerged victorious. Iranian officials are portraying the agreement as a strategic win, while Washington insists all economic benefits remain conditional on compliance. At the center of the controversy is a reported $300 billion investment and reconstruction framework that Tehran says could transform its economy. U.S. officials, including Vice President JD Vance, reject claims of direct American payouts, arguing any investment would come from private and international sources and only after Iran meets its obligations.
