Mehr News Agency cited a draft memorandum report stating that the U.S. has committed to unfreezing $24 billion in Iranian assets overseas, with half required to be returned to Iran before the formal signing of the memorandum of understanding.
The report stated: "The $24 billion in Iranian assets will be unfrozen within 60 days of the conclusion of negotiations, with half to be delivered to Iran prior to the start of talks."
The 60-day negotiation period will commence following the signing of the memorandum on Friday, June 19th.
