Read the full text of Trump's preliminary U.S.-Iran agreement to end the war

NPR has obtained a copy of the framework agreement to end the war with Iran. A source shared the text on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the preliminary deal.

Formally called a 'memorandum of understanding,' the text was signed Wednesday by President Trump and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian, as well as by the prime minister of Pakistan, which mediated between the U.S. and Iran.

The text is as follows:
