As President Donald Trump concludes his Middle East trip, he said that the US has submitted a nuclear proposal to Iran. However, he did not offer further details on the matter.
“Yeah, they have a proposal, but more importantly, they know they have to move quickly or something bad, something bad is going to happen," Trump said on Friday.
His remarks came a day after he mentioned that the US was “getting close" to securing a nuclear deal and that Tehran had “sort of" agreed to the terms.
The talks between Iranian and US negotiators to resolve disputes over Tehran’s nuclear programme came to an end in Oman last Sunday. There are expectations of further negotiations as Iran publicly insisted on carrying on its uranium enrichment, the officials said, Reuters reported.
The US government also gave Iran a proposal for a nuclear deal during the fourth round of negotiations on Sunday.
A senior Iranian official told Reuters yesterday that Iran has not received any new offer from the United States to help solve the long-running nuclear issue. The official also said that Iran will never give up its right to make enriched uranium within the country.
Although both Tehran and Washington have said they would rather solve the issue through diplomacy, they still disagree on several key points. In an interview with NBC News published on Wednesday, an adviser to Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, said that Iran is open to making a deal with the US if economic sanctions are removed.
According to NBC, the adviser, Ali Shamkhani, said that Iran would promise never to build nuclear weapons, get rid of its stock of highly enriched uranium, only enrich uranium to low levels needed for peaceful purposes, and let international inspectors monitor the process.
