31. Horrendous deal for the U.S. per the MOU released by MEHR
Sun Jun 14, 2026, 08:33 PM
Sunday

Now, it is likely that MEHR is exaggerating, but this is still a train wreck of an agreement for the U.S. A few highlights for me:

1) Trump sold the Iranian opposition down the river - See #2

2) Iran now controls the Strait of Hormuz - this is not as big deal as it sounds because Iran can only charge so much for access and this could become a 4 way street with Saudi Arabia, UAE and Oman also charging for access.

3) The U.S. will never be able to get an embargo on another country again just because we ask for it, or at least not one on Iran.

What a colossal screw up by the Administration.

Mehr releases what it says are details of the Iran-US MoU:
