Iran agrees in principle to dispose of highly-enriched uranium, senior U.S. official says
A senior U.S. official said the deal would also lift port restrictions and open the Strait of Hormuz as sanctions relief is negotiated.
- Iran has tentatively agreed to relinquish its stockpile of highly enriched uranium as a key condition of an emerging nuclear agreement with the United States, according to The New York Times.
- According to the report, Iran stands to recover billions in frozen overseas assets if a broader nuclear agreement is reached, providing Tehran financial incentive to stay engaged in talks.
- However, major differences remain regarding the duration of restrictions on Iran's enrichment program, with the U.S. pushing for a 20-year moratorium and Iran proposing a much shorter timeline.
