MOU signing proposed for Geneva but Iran signals delay; Vance "going back and forth on language"; Trump says deal to be signed Sunday; Iran FM says not Sunday but "coming days"
Trump publicly stated on June 13–14 that the US-Iran peace deal would be signed on Sunday (June 14) in Geneva, with VP Vance as the US signatory and Iran's Parliament Speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf as the Iranian signatory. Trump wrote that "immediately after it is signed, the Hormuz Strait is OPEN TO ALL." However, Iran's Foreign Ministry stated the MOU "won't be signed on Sunday" but could happen "in the coming days," adding it was "still too early to mention the timing and location." Iran's state-affiliated Fars news agency called reports of a finalized June 14 Geneva signing "completely baseless." Vance told reporters they are "going back and forth on a couple of language points" and said it was "hard to say exactly when, or if, the president's going to sign the MOU." The core framework remained consistent: Hormuz to be "unrestricted" with no tolls; Iran removes mines within 30 days; US naval blockade lifted; 60-day ceasefire extension including Lebanon; $24B in frozen Iranian assets released; Iran commits not to pursue nuclear weapons; enriched uranium disposal to be negotiated in 60-day window. US Treasury Secretary Bessent said a deal could come "this weekend or Monday." The MOU had not been signed as of available reporting through end of day June 14. No new US-Iran direct land strikes reported on June 14. CENTCOM continued to escort commercial shipping through Hormuz.
