Negotiations have reached the “expert” level – which means both parties are trying to see if they can reach any agreement on the details of any possible deal. However, one major point remains Iran’s abundance of uranium, which Tehran insists must be allowed, while the Trump administration is increasingly insisting that the Islamic Republic must give up.
Trump discusses proposals on Air Force One
Trump commented on Air Force One as he ended his trip to the United Arab Emirates, his last stop in his trip to the Three Kingdoms in the Middle East, which also includes Saudi Arabia and Qatar.
In almost all the events he attended in the region, he insisted that Iran could not be allowed to obtain nuclear bombs – a U.S. intelligence agency assessed that Tehran was not actively pursuing, although its plans were being able to weapons.
A reporter asked Trump: “Did the United States give them a formal proposal in Iran? Did Steve Vitokov hand it over to?” Trump replied: “They have a suggestion.” “But the most important thing is that they know they have to move quickly or something bad will happen.” Trump did not elaborate on the essence of the proposal, and Iran did not immediately admit to owning the proposal.
Araghchi spoke with reporters at the Tehran International Expo on Thursday and said Iran has not yet made any American proposals.
Araghchi also criticized his alleged ambivalence and inconsistent statements, calling them signs of chaos in Washington or calculated negotiation strategies.
Witkoff once suggested that Iran enrich uranium at 3.67%, and then began saying that all Iranian abundance must stop.
“Iran has not received any written advice directly or indirectly from the United States,” Araghchi wrote on social platform X on Friday night.
“At the same time, our messaging and access to the world is confusing and contradictory,” he added. “Tag my words: There is no scene, Iran has given up its hard right to wealth for peaceful purposes.”
Talks held in Oman and Rome
Iranian and U.S. officials have been negotiating in Oman and Rome, always mediated by Oman Foreign Minister Badr al-Busaidi, a trusted interlocutor between the two countries. The negotiations were intended to limit Iran’s nuclear program in exchange for some broken economic sanctions imposed by the United States on the Islamic Republic and ended in a half-century of hatred.
If a deal is not reached, Trump has repeatedly threatened to release air strikes against Iran. Iranian officials are increasingly warning that they can use uranium to store to near-weapon-level levels in pursuit of nuclear weapons.
Meanwhile, Israel threatened to threaten Iran’s nuclear facilities, which has caused the Israel-Hamas war in the Gaza Strip to scream, which would cause Iran’s nuclear facilities to attack on its own.
