leave the country until nearly $6 billion of what critics blast as a “ransom” payment hits regime bank accounts, state-backed media reported Friday.
“[T]here will be no Qatari companies involved, Iranian banks will have full control, and they can purchase goods and services without any limitation or restriction,” Seyed Mohammad Marandi declared on X, formerly known as Twitter. Also on Thursday, Secretary of State Antony Blinken said “this is just the beginning of a process that I hope and expect will lead to their return home to the United States,” adding: There’s more work to be done to actually bring them home. My belief is that this is the beginning of the end of their nightmare.”
Trump administration officials — including former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and former national security adviser John Bolton — also slammed the deal.
