Axios details draft MOU traffic terms
Axios, citing a mediating diplomat and U.S. officials, reported that the draft U.S.-Iran MOU would reopen Hormuz immediately without tolls, target pre-war shipping volumes within 30 days, and tie sanctions relief to compliance. AP, Guardian, and Al Jazeera still frame Tehran's final approval as unresolved.
Why this matters. This turns the deal watch from headline claims into measurable obligations: toll orders, demining work, blockade notices, sanctions waivers, Lebanon ceasefire language, and physical ship counts now become the receipts.
