Vance says 12.5 million barrels oil moved as Iran deal enters 60-day phase
Speaking at a White House briefing, Vance said the U.S. Navy had allowed more than a dozen ships to access Iranian ports, lifting a blockade as part of an agreement aimed at ending the conflict. He said the increase in oil flows showed that Washington was honouring its commitments under the initial phase of the deal. Vance said the 60-day period begins on Thursday, with final negotiations expected to determine the terms that will apply after the implementation window ends.

Outlining U.S. expectations for a final agreement, Vance said Iran would retain the right to self-defence but would not be allowed to possess missiles capable of "broadly threatening the entire world." On sanctions relief, Vance said Washington would be able to monitor how Iran sends and receives money, suggesting that any easing of restrictions would be accompanied by oversight mechanisms. Vance also said Iran would require significant financial resources to rebuild any nuclear weapons programme and reiterated that the administration plans to brief Congress on the agreement soon. Addressing the regional dimension of the accord, Vance said Israel must respect the peace process and described attacks on civilians in Beirut as unacceptable. He said the U.S. expects both sides to honour the Lebanon-related components of the agreement and ultimately wants the Lebanese government to police southern Lebanon.
