The Tasnim News Agency claimed on Tuesday, citing its sources, that according to the 14-article memorandum of understanding between Iran and the United States, Iran's blocked resources, amounting to $24 billion, must be released during the negotiations.

As reported by this media outlet close to the Revolutionary Guard, citing "an informed source close to the negotiating team," Iran insists that half of this amount should be made available at the start of the negotiations, with the remainder to be transferred within 60 days.

The report states that the recent visit of Abbas Araghchi and Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf to Qatar was also aimed at reaching an agreement on implementing this demand and how to access $12 billion in the first step while removing obstacles.

At the same time, Ahmad Bakhshaei Ardestani, a member of the National Security Commission of the Parliament, claimed that a few days ago, $12 billion of Iran's blocked resources was supposed to be transferred through Russia, but the Americans prevented this transfer.

No official from the U.S. government has yet confirmed these claims.
