US EditionTrump Says Iran Agreed to Hand Over Enriched Uranium as Deal Nears
Iran says enriched uranium will not be transferred, while officials say major gaps remain and a deal could still take weeks.
- On Thursday, President Donald Trump announced Iran agreed to hand over its store of enriched uranium, describing the stockpile as "nuclear dust." This development signals potential progress in peace talks to end the Middle East conflict.

- While the United States seeks a 20-year enrichment suspension, Iran insists its nuclear program is for civilian purposes. Its foreign ministry stated Wednesday that enrichment rights are "indisputable," though the level remains "negotiable."
- White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters Wednesday further talks "would very likely" occur in the Pakistani capital. The Iranian ambassador to the UN expressed hope for a "meaningful outcome."
- Separately, President Trump announced a 10-day truce between Israel and Lebanon amid ongoing unease on Capitol Hill. The House of Representatives rejected a Democratic effort to curb the president's war-making authority in Iran.
