JAKARTA - US President Donald Trump has a variety of options if Iran refuses to agree to the terms of a joint agreement, but he still prefers the diplomatic route.
"The president has many options he can use. If Iran reneges on its promises, or if Iran decides it does not want to reach an agreement, let's hope it doesn't happen. We don't want that. We will give every opportunity for diplomacy to succeed," said US Secretary of State Marco Rubiodilansir ANTARA from Sputnik, Thursday, June 25.
Rubio emphasized that the memorandum of understanding (MoU) between the United States and Iran is not a final agreement, it only creates a framework and outline for further negotiations, he added.
On the night leading up to June 18, Iran and the United States signed the memorandum of understanding remotely. The document regulates the cessation of the military conflict that began on February 28.
In addition, the document also sets a schedule for the United States to lift the naval blockade of Iranian ports, as well as for Iran to restore shipping traffic in the Strait of Hormuz.
Iran is also committed to not acquiring nuclear weapons. However, the issue of Iran's nuclear program will be resolved through a separate agreement. Both parties are scheduled to hold negotiations on the issue within 60 days.
For Tehran, the expected result of the process is the lifting of sanctions that have been imposed on Iran.
