Iran Nuclear Deal Talks Continue as U.S. Allows Limited Uranium Enrichment

Iran nuclear deal talks continue amid a complex and controversial proposal from the Trump administration. This weekend, U.S. officials offered Tehran a formal agreement. The proposal includes strict rules but allows some limited uranium enrichment under specific conditions.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt stated that President Trump remains firm on preventing Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons. She added that Special Envoy Witkoff submitted a clear and strong offer. Although details remain confidential, the administration insists the terms are “very tough.”

According to Axios, which first reported the story, the deal would allow Iran to enrich uranium at low levels. This permission would only apply to civilian purposes. Furthermore, Iran must follow strict conditions, such as halting all underground enrichment activity.

Notably, Axios reported that the plan requires Iran to dismantle several key uranium processing facilities. It also bans research on new centrifuge technologies. The U.S. aims to limit nuclear progress while still offering Iran a chance to participate in peaceful nuclear programs.

When asked for confirmation, the White House did not deny the report. Instead, a senior official reinforced the administration’s stance. He claimed the deal would block Iran from ever acquiring a nuclear weapon. He called the agreement “realistic” but firm, and urged Iran to accept.

Iran nuclear deal talks continue even as some allies voice concern. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reportedly objects to any form of enrichment. Several Republican lawmakers also criticized the deal’s flexibility.

Despite this, U.S. negotiators believe the plan reduces risk while keeping diplomatic options open. According to Axios, Iran may join a regional enrichment consortium. This step would tie their efforts to broader oversight and regional cooperation.

Media sources suggest that Iran is considering rejecting the deal. However, insiders believe the new terms may ease some Iranian objections. The U.S. hopes that stricter controls and transparency can win support from both parties.

In summary, Iran nuclear deal talks continue with high stakes and global implications. Officials say the coming days will be critical.
