Iran Says US Violated MOU, Suspends Commitments The latest escalation between Iran and the US has left two American service members dead and a third missing, casting a pall over already tense relations.
This is not simply a case of tit for tat retaliation, but rather a complex web of retaliation and counter retaliation that threatens to drag in other regional players.
Iranian officials claim that US actions have triggered a suspension of commitments under a 2015 Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). However, this move appears to be more than just a formal abandonment of obligations.
