Speaking at the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation summit in Bishkek, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said Iran would 'immediately take reciprocal action' if the United States returned to its commitments under the June memorandum of understanding. He accused Washington of reneging on the deal within two weeks and warned that a return to 'pressure and threats' risked derailing diplomacy.

Why it matters

Hours later Trump said an agreement with Iran 'isn't worth the paper it's written on' and ordered new strikes, so the offer did not reopen talks.
