On 24 November 2013 Iran and the E3+3 agreed a Joint Plan of Action in Geneva, an interim nuclear freeze-for-relief deal. Khamenei had allowed Rouhani to talk.

Context

Rouhani had just been elected. Neighbouring JCPOA 2015 is the child. He did not sit in the Geneva hotel as a unique later centrifuge coefficient.

Rouhani 2013 election is neighbouring. JCPOA 2015 is the child.

The Supreme Leader of Iran is commander-in-chief and the highest constitutional authority. He does not write a US presidential strike order, an IAEA Board resolution, or a Hamas military plan. Presidents, the IRGC, and the Guardian Council implement and share specific files.

What the sources establish

International Atomic Energy Agency carries the official instrument or communique. Reuters records the same dated act independently.

Established: 24 November 2013 JPOA, independently reported.

Not established: that JCPOA was thereby guaranteed, or a unique later enrichment coefficient of zero forever.

Rouhani and Zarif negotiated. The E3+3 signed.. A later repeal, court stay, or successor order would be a different Fact with a different date. That pair identifies Iran and the E3+3 agree a Joint Plan of Action in Geneva, not a later speech about Iran and the E3+3 agree a Joint Plan of Action in Geneva.

Co-authors and later implementers named in Context remain on the file. If a later repeal, stay, or successor instrument exists, it needs its own date and its own row. The contribution described on this Person row is limited to He allowed the talks. Rouhani and Zarif negotiated. The E3+3 signed. That limit is the alternative to treating office-holding as authorship of every later series.
