President Donald Trump is drawing heavy criticism from opponents who argue his handling of the war with Iran has squeezed ordinary Americans, who have weathered higher pump prices and climbing inflation through the conflict.
Among the most significant provisions listed in the 14-point memorandum of understanding presented last week, the United States agreed to provide at least $300 billion for Iran's reconstruction and economic development, ease sanctions on the country and support the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. In exchange, Iran agreed to make concessions regarding its nuclear program and existing stockpile of nuclear material.
