Trump signals openness to congressional review of Iran deal as lawmakers demand details

Wednesday, 17 June 2026, 06:49 · 1 min read

US President Donald Trump has indicated he would be willing to submit a recently negotiated agreement with Iran to Congress for review, after lawmakers from both parties demanded access to a deal whose full text has not yet been made public. The memorandum of understanding, signed electronically over the weekend and set to be formally concluded in Geneva on Friday, is intended to end four months of military confrontation between Washington and Tehran and reopen the Strait of Hormuz — a strategically vital waterway through which a significant share of global oil trade passes. Key questions about Iran's nuclear programme, sanctions relief, and verification mechanisms remain unresolved and are expected to be addressed in follow-on negotiations over the next 60 days, leaving both Republican allies and Democratic critics withholding judgement until the full terms are disclosed.
