US ties $6B in frozen Iran funds to milestones, not lump sum
TL;DR
A US official told The Post that none of the $6 billion in frozen Iranian assets will be released until Tehran meets benchmarks outlined in the US‑Iran memorandum of understanding, with incremental payouts to vendors tied to progress in key negotiation areas. Talks in Doha will be indirect and mediated by Qatar, as Iran and the US push to resume negotiations; Tehran had sought a lump-sum release, but Washington says funds will be released only upon meeting milestones and humanitarian-relief criteria.
