According to the New York Times, citing two senior Iranian officials, in response to the U.S. proposal for a 20-year suspension of Iranian uranium enrichment, Iran countered with a proposal for a severely reduced 5-year suspension of uranium enrichment, which was rejected by U.S. President Donald J. Trump, per a U.S. official speaking to the New York Times. Additionally, Iran refused to allow enriched material out of the country, a key U.S. demand, but instead offered to dilute it.
