Republican Senators Ted Cruz and Bill Cassidy do not agree with the position taken by President Donald Trump when he gave in on several points to the Iranian government with the aim of signing an agreement to formally end the war and reopen the Strait of Hormuz to the transit of oil tankers.

The possibility of lifting sanctions on Iranian oil exports and granting it access to a $300 billion reconstruction fund is seen by Ted Cruz as compromising the nation's security.

"History teaches us that giving billions of dollars to theocratic lunatics who want to murder us is not a good idea. I think the president is receiving very bad advice about this agreement," said the Texas legislator in a statement issued to The Hill newspaper.

Bill Cassidy's approach is even more extreme, since he considers that the Islamic Republic will once again resort to closing the Strait of Hormuz to obtain money to continue with its uranium enrichment program.

"Reagan will be turning in his grave. Iran's nuclear ambitions have not slowed down, and they have learned that threatening the Strait of Hormuz works and will undoubtedly take advantage of it in the future. Now, Iran will be able to build entirely new infrastructure thanks to this deal," the Louisiana senator wrote on platform X, formerly known as Twitter.

Another point that stands out, without even being part of the memorandum of understanding (MOU) released by Washington, is Donald Trump's determination to allow the government of Tehran to keep part of its arsenal of ballistic missiles, considering them little threatening.

"They have to have something, because other people have something. You have to have something. The missiles damage a small area, but they don't blow up the planet.

We have neutralized probably between 84 and 85% of their missiles. The rest are underground; "They can't even get them out," said the US president in a statement issued during a press conference of the Group of Seven (G7), held in France.
