According to a report from HA Viewpoint, U.S. Vice President Vance told American media on the 15th that if Iran fulfills its obligations under the deal, it could gain access to a massive $300 billion reconstruction fund.

Vance said, “As long as they meet their commitments, this is exactly the funding they can get. The money will be provided by a Gulf Coast alliance.”
Another report from the New York Post adds that U.S. officials have acknowledged plans to ease sanctions on Iran, unfreeze its assets, and set up a $300 billion infrastructure fund led by Arab nations. But they also warned that if money ends up flowing to groups like Hezbollah or the Houthis in Yemen, everything would stop immediately.
A Trump administration official told reporters, “We’re still in the early stages, building trust. What you’ll likely see is we’re ready to unfreeze funds and lift sanctions. If the other side makes small gestures showing they’re willing to keep their word, we’ll respond in kind. These are just tentative steps to see how things go, but ultimately it’s all about performance. We’ll meet this week to hash out what we want to do and when.”
The U.S. and Iran recently announced a ceasefire memorandum of understanding, with the formal signing ceremony set for the 19th in Geneva, Switzerland. For now, neither side has disclosed the specifics of the MOU. President Trump said on the 15th that the deal’s details will be released after the official signing. Iran, meanwhile, has stated that some parts of the MOU have already been put into effect as of the 15th.
