-Commitments exceed $150 billion across five regions, says source -The investment fund vehicle contains no government money -New fund is separate from frozen asset talks, says source -Fund only becomes operational after a final U.S.-Iran deal is signed

DUBAI, June 16 (Reuters) - A $300 billion private fund designed to trigger investment into Iran is outlined in the U.S.-Iran framework agreement and more than half that sum has already been committed, a source with ‌direct knowledge of the deal told Reuters.

The fund is designed to give both sides an economic incentive to conclude a final deal, said the source, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the plan has not yet been announced as Washington and Tehran prepare to sign on Friday.

Can we just send them one of the big tech billionaires?

Larry Ellison specifically.

And there you were complaining about the 1.776 billion dollars! Aren't you happy now that you no longer have to worry about that small amount of chump change? Trump in action!

People said it couldn't be done, but look BAM, We surrendered to Iran! Some would say I'm the only president to surrender to Iran. I showed the dumocrats how it's done.

Thank you for your attention on this matter.

Maybe we could use all the crypto gains from trump coins to pay? Or use the money Trump's companies have made since he's been in office? Feel like the art of the deal is actually getting trump to pay for this and not saddling the burden on the American taxpayer.

Wait wait, does this mean we can just get one of these magic private funds and give the US population healthcare?!
