U.S. asked Iran to freeze uranium enrichment for 20 years, sources say
"The United States suggested 20 years at a minimum with all kinds of other restrictions, highlighting the critical issue of uranium enrichment in the marathon talks over the weekend."
"The Iranians were pissed off about that press conference, indicating their frustration with the U.S. delegation's abrupt departure and lack of communication regarding the negotiations."
Pakistani, Egyptian, and Turkish mediators are working to bridge gaps and finalize a deal to end the war before the ceasefire expires on April 21. President Trump announced a blockade on Iran to increase leverage in negotiations. A U.S. official noted ongoing engagement with Iran, focusing on uranium enrichment issues. The U.S. proposed a 20-year moratorium on enrichment and the removal of highly enriched uranium, while Iran suggested a monitored down-blending process. Tensions rose after a U.S. press conference indicated no imminent agreement.
