US says ‘zero’ frozen Iranian assets released so far

Iran says 'will not hesitate' to respond to US attack on its territory

The United States has released no frozen Iranian funds so far under a peace deal, a US official said Monday, dismissing an Iranian report that Washington would immediately unblock some assets.

“Zero,” the senior administration official said in a call with reporters when asked how many Iranian funds had been released. “The very simple fact is $0 of frozen assets have been released by the United States or any other country.”
