Possible Iran-US deal: What we know about the key issues on both sides

Summary

The United States and Iran are in talks to end the Middle East war, but both sides agree a quick deal is unlikely. Key issues include Iran’s nuclear program, control of the Strait of Hormuz, lifting sanctions, and a ceasefire in Lebanon.

Key Facts

  • US President Donald Trump said the deal would include reopening the Strait of Hormuz to civilian ships.
  • Iran’s foreign ministry said nuclear issues will be discussed separately and are not part of the initial deal.
  • Some US reports say Iran might give up its stockpile of highly enriched uranium, but Iranian agencies deny any nuclear commitments so far.
  • Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu said any final deal must fully remove Iran’s nuclear threat.
  • Iran wants at least partial access to its frozen assets before any agreement is made.
  • The Strait of Hormuz remains under Iranian control, and the final deal may keep Iran’s authority there.
  • The US has imposed a naval blockade on Iranian ports, which talks aim to end within 30 days of an agreement.
