Desk note: Monexus treated the Geneva announcement as a sequence of contested claims rather than a scheduled signing, holding clause text and verification mechanics out of the body until a primary source confirms them; the structural frame rests on the announcement-and-recalibration pattern visible across the cycle, not on any single official statement.
