Iran Agrees to Halt Uranium Enrichment as Trump Offers Sanctions Relief and Frozen Asset Release
Read this in the Market Flux appIran has agreed to halt uranium enrichment in exchange for the easing of U.S. sanctions, according to Al Hadath, marking a significant development in nuclear negotiations that have been conducted through mediators. A U.S. official confirmed to both CNN and Al Jazeera on Monday that President Trump is willing to provide sanctions relief and release frozen Iranian funds in return for concrete progress on Tehran's nuclear program, with Washington describing talks as "positive and constructive."
The key sticking point in the broader negotiations remains sequencing: both sides have yet to agree on when concessions would take effect relative to each other. The U.S. has made clear that nuclear issues must be addressed before any comprehensive deal is finalized. Trump on Saturday had rejected Iran's latest proposal regarding the Strait of Hormuz, calling it "unacceptable," underscoring the gaps that remain even as the enrichment halt report signals potential movement.
Separately, the U.S. and China agreed on proposed tariff cuts covering 60 billion dollars in goods following talks between Trump and Xi, adding to a broader picture of Washington pursuing diplomatic and economic dealmaking on multiple fronts simultaneously.
