This morning, US President Donald Trump signed a ceasefire agreement with Iran at Versailles Palace in France. The agreement was also signed by Iranian president Masoud Pezeshkian. 

Now Esmaeil Baghaei, a spokesperson from the Iranian Foreign Affairs ministry has issued a stern warning for the US. According to him Tehran is monitoring that Washington fulfills all commitments ‘without any leniency’. 

Baghaei also threatened that Iran will not fulfil any of its commitments if the US “evades its obligations”. He also warned that Iran’s controversial nuclear weapons program will be addressed in the 60 day negotiation window. 

Trump previously claimed that Iran has agreed to not possess or acquire any nuclear weapons. “Iran has agreed to never have a Nuclear Weapon!

Initially, the formal declaration of the Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding was scheduled to happen on 19th June, 2026 in Geneva, Switzerland. Now, many are wondering whether the signing ceremony in Geneva will still happen, now that the agreement has been signed. 

According to Baghaei, “So far, our plans for the Geneva meeting have not changed”. The meeting will be attended by US Vice President JD Vance, along with representatives from Pakistan and Qatar, two of the main mediators.  

On his part, Trump expressed nonchalance about the signing venue. “Just as long as they’re behaving, I really don’t care that much”, he said.

The first course of action for Tehran and Muscat is to “develop a management mechanism for the Strait of Hormuz”. He also stated that they would “cooperate and consult with other regional countries wherever necessary.”
