Trump Says Proposed Iran Deal Allows Only Peaceful Uranium Enrichment, Warns of Consequences if Talks Fail

Washington (HRNW)- US President Donald Trump has shared key details regarding the proposed agreement between the United States and Iran, stating that under the framework being discussed, Iran would only be permitted to enrich uranium at low levels for peaceful and civilian purposes.

In an interview with the New York Times, President Trump said that Iran would be allowed to continue uranium enrichment solely for non-military purposes and that the restriction on military-related enrichment would be permanent.

When asked whether the proposed limit would be similar to the 3.67 percent enrichment cap established under the 2015 nuclear agreement, Trump did not specify a percentage but reiterated that any enrichment would be limited to peaceful uses.

The US president also indicated that sanctions relief could be affected by Iran’s future domestic actions. He stated that if Iranian authorities were to take severe action against anti-government protesters, Tehran might not receive full sanctions relief. However, reports suggest that this condition is not formally included in the proposed memorandum of understanding.

Trump also criticized Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, describing him as a difficult partner and arguing that Israel should recognize the support provided by the United States.

According to Trump, if Iran were ever to acquire nuclear weapons, it would pose a serious threat to Israel’s security. He further claimed that Israeli military actions in Lebanon complicated diplomatic efforts and created obstacles during critical stages of negotiations with Tehran.

The US president said that American military pressure, including missile and air operations, increased pressure on Iran and contributed to Tehran’s willingness to engage in negotiations.

Trump warned that if a final agreement on Iran’s nuclear program is not reached, the United States could again consider military options. He argued that Iran seeks to avoid further confrontation, which has helped create momentum in the diplomatic process.

His remarks come as international attention remains focused on ongoing negotiations between Washington and Tehran, with governments around the world closely monitoring efforts to reduce regional tensions and reach a comprehensive agreement.
