Desk note: Monexus has framed Khamenei’s endorsement as a domestic legitimacy event rather than as either an Iranian diplomatic triumph or a Western negotiating win. The available wire material supports that framing. The memorandum text itself is not yet in the public Telegram record and this article will be updated when it is.
