Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian on Thursday shared the newly signed US-Iran Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on his official X account, describing the agreement as a "historic document" and saying it reflected the strength of the Islamic Republic.

Publishing the deal shortly after it was signed by both sides, Pezeshkian said the agreement showed that peace could be achieved "through mutual respect" while safeguarding Iran's dignity and independence.

"The Islamic Republic of Iran remains committed to global peace while preserving its dignity and independence," Pezeshkian wrote on X. He also described the accord as a "message from a strong Iran".

The social media post is among the clearest public endorsements of the agreement by Tehran since the breakthrough was announced, with Iranian authorities seeking to project the deal as a diplomatic success rather than a compromise.

The development came hours after US President Donald Trump formally signed the agreement during a dinner with French President Emmanuel Macron at the G7 summit in Versailles.

Before signing the document, Trump acknowledged the difficulty of the negotiations, saying: "This was not easy."

A US official told CNN that Washington subsequently sent a photograph of the signed document to Tehran, following which Pezeshkian signed the agreement on behalf of Iran.

Macron welcomed the move, saying the deal could pave the way for lasting regional stability and help restore normal shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, a key artery for global energy supplies.

The agreement, officially titled the Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding between the United States of America and the Islamic Republic of Iran, lays out a framework for a regional ceasefire, economic cooperation, sanctions relief and future negotiations over Iran's nuclear programme.

The signing follows months of heightened tensions involving Iran, Israel and the United States, including direct military exchanges that raised concerns of a wider regional conflict.

Despite the formal signing, questions remain over the next phase of the process, including whether the agreement automatically triggers a 60-day period of technical talks aimed at converting the framework into a final settlement.

The signing ceremony was held at the Palace of Versailles, a venue closely associated with major diplomatic agreements and peace settlements throughout modern history.
