The Iranian officials said the deal Tehran had agreed to would reopen the #StraitOfHormuz without any tolls; lift the #US naval blockade on #Iran; stop the fighting on all fronts, including between #Israel & #Hezbollah, the Iran-backed armed group, in #Lebanon; & release $25 billion in Iranian assets frozen overseas.
The senior #US official said the proposal would reopen the #StraitOfHormuz in the Persian Gulf — a critical waterway for global #oil & #gas — & see #Iran commit to disposing of its stockpiles of highly enriched #uranium. The mechanism by which Iran will dispose of its highly enriched uranium is still being negotiated, the official said. #Trump has insisted that the #UnitedStates seize the material as part of his vow to curb Iran’s nuclear program.
