US media: US-Iran agreement may be hindered by Beirut airstrike; some criticisms of the memorandum of understanding are unfounded.

CoinFeed reported on June 14th, citing Fox News, that a diplomat involved in the negotiations revealed that today's airstrike in Beirut, Lebanon, has caused trouble for the finalization of the (US-Iran) agreement. The diplomat also stated, "This is a clear attempt by Israel to undermine President Trump's agreement and drag the United States back into war." A senior Israeli official refuted claims that Israel was responsible for the exchange of fire, stating, "For the past three days, Hezbollah attacks have consistently targeted Israeli civilians." Iranian Parliament Economic Committee member Zohoulian stated that the currently discussed text of the Iran-US memorandum of understanding does indeed have "flaws and ambiguities," but describing it as "a worse agreement than the Iran nuclear deal" or "Iran's surrender" is inaccurate.
