The US and Iran may have signed a public 14-point memorandum of understanding (MoU) to end hostilities and launch a new diplomatic process, but it has come to light that the real negotiations extend well beyond the document that has been made public.
Citing multiple US officials and other sources familiar with the talks, CNN reports that both sides have been working on a series of confidential proposals and understandings dealing with some of the most sensitive aspects of Iran's nuclear programme. While the Trump administration insists there are no "side deals", officials have acknowledged the existence of unreleased documents linked to the implementation of the agreement.
