American efforts to limit Iran's access to frozen funds
According to reports originating from the Wall Street Journal and published in various Telegram channels such as ایکس فارسی ࡆ FarsiX, اخبارفوری خبرفوری جنگ امریکا فوری and خبری پلاس|خبرفوری, the United States has proposed limiting Iran's access to its $6 billion in frozen assets in Qatar.
The American proposal seeks to allow the use of these funds solely for the "purchase of medicine, food, and humanitarian products." According to the sources, the purpose of the move is to prevent Tehran from having the ability to use these funds to "rebuild its military capability."
As of these reports, Iran has not yet accepted the plan. The cited sources, which are identified with intensive coverage of foreign and security issues in Iran, emphasize the ongoing tension surrounding the release of the assets and the conditioning of them for civilian use only.
