INTEL: U.S.-Iran negotiations are centered on a proposed 14-point MOU, with Tehran expected to respond on key terms within 48 hours.
Key points under discussion:
• Formal end of war + 30-day negotiation window
• Long-term uranium enrichment freeze
— U.S. initially demanded 20 years
— Iran reportedly proposed 5 years
— Current expectation: ~12–15 years
• No nuclear weapons + no underground facilities
• Expanded snap inspections
• Removal of highly enriched uranium from Iran
• U.S. sanctions relief + release of frozen assets
• Phased reopening of the Strait of Hormuz + end of U.S. naval blockade
• “Snapback” clause allowing renewed blockade or military action if talks collapse
Main sticking points remain enrichment limits, HEU removal and inspection access
