Mediators propose framework for crucial Iran-US talks this week
"Proposals include requirements for Iran to halt uranium enrichment for three years and transfer stock to a third country, Al Jazeera has learned. Mediators from Qatar, Turkiye and Egypt have presented Iran and the United States with a framework of key principles to be discussed in talks on Friday this week, including a commitment by Iran to significantly limit its uranium enrichment, two sources familiar with the negotiations have told Al Jazeera."
"Under the proposed framework for an agreement, Iran would commit to zero enrichment of uranium for three years. After that, it would agree to limit enrichment of uranium to below 1.5 percent. Its current stock of highly enriched uranium including about 440kg (970lb) that has been enriched to 60 percent would be transferred to a third country. The proposed framework goes beyond Iran's nuclear programme with mediators proposing that Iran should agree not to transfer weapons and technologies to its regional, nonstate allies."
Mediators from Qatar, Turkiye and Egypt presented Iran and the United States with a framework proposing significant limits on Iran's nuclear and regional military activities. Under the proposal Iran would halt uranium enrichment for three years, then limit enrichment to below 1.5 percent. Tehran's current high-enriched uranium stock, including about 440kg enriched to 60 percent, would be transferred to a third country. The framework would bar Iran from transferring weapons and technologies to regional nonstate allies and would prohibit Iran from initiating the use of ballistic missiles. Talks are expected to occur in Oman with US special envoy Steve Witkoff and Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi.
