Senator Cotton raises concerns about sanctions relief in Iran agreement

Jun 18, 2026, 22:15 GMT+1

Republican Senator Tom Cotton said on Thursday he has concerns about aspects of the US-Iran agreement, warning that some provisions could move policy in the wrong direction.

Speaking to Fox News Cotton cited potential sanctions relief on Iranian oil exports, Iran's access to an estimated $100 billion in frozen assets, and provisions related to tolls on shipping through the Strait of Hormuz as areas of concern, despite supporting efforts to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon.
