Did US agree to unfreeze $6B Iranian funds for Islamabad peace talks?

Analysis Reasoning

No US agreement exists to unfreeze $6 billion in Iranian funds as part of Islamabad peace talks. The funds, originally frozen in 2018 under Trump sanctions and transferred to Qatar in 2023 for a prisoner swap, remain blocked since October 2023 following the Hamas attack on Israel, with no recent unfreezing reported.[1][2][3][4]
