Vice President Vance spent much of the week pushing back against widespread reports claiming the deal contains a massive reconstruction fund worth hundreds of billions of dollars
Advertisement “What everybody will see is that Iran doesn’t get a dime of money unless they perform their obligations. ”
According to administration officials, no frozen Iranian assets have been released
No sanctions have been lifted.
Instead, any future economic relief would be tied to strict compliance requirements involving Iran’s nuclear program
Vance explained that Iran would need to permanently abandon efforts to obtain nuclear weapons, eliminate enriched nuclear stockpiles, and submit to extensive verification measures before meaningful sanctions relief could occur.
Officials have also indicated that Gulf nations could potentially invest in Iranian reconstruction projects in the future, but only if Tehran fully complies with the agreement.
