Iran Foreign Ministry Criticizes US Over Trump’s Remarks on Islamabad Memorandum

This is a rhetorical escalation rather than a policy shift, but it matters because it targets the credibility of US diplomatic commitments at a moment when the Islamabad memorandum's viability is already in question. The audience is less markets than the diplomatic track itself: Tehran is using Trump's own dismissal to argue that US assurances are unreliable, which complicates any future negotiation built on that framework. Whether the memorandum retains any practical standing after this exchange is the open question worth watching.
