U.S. President Donald Trump has outlined options for the fate of Iran’s enriched uranium stockpile if both countries sign a peace agreement currently under negotiation.
“The Enriched Uranium (Nuclear Dust!) will either be immediately turned over to the United States to be brought home and destroyed or, preferably, in conjunction and coordination with the Islamic Republic of Iran, destroyed in place or, at another acceptable location, with the Atomic Energy Commission, or its equivalent, being witness to this process and event,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
The U.S. has repeatedly insisted that Iran must stop its nuclear program and abandon its stockpile of enriched uranium.
According to The Hill, the issue has remained a sticking point during the latest set of talks in Qatar, where both sides are closing in on a deal that would end the conflict and gradually reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
Earlier, the Iranian news agency Tasnim denied reports circulated in Western media that Iran was ready to transfer its enriched uranium reserves abroad.
