Report: Iran Reviews Nuclear Proposal as US-Iran Talks Make Progress

TechFlow reported on November 6, citing Jin10 Data, that The New York Times, citing five people familiar with the matter, said Iran is reviewing a series of concrete nuclear proposals put forward by mediators, and Qatar-led diplomatic mediation between the US and Iran has made progress. Over the past week, Qatar held two rounds of talks in Tehran, hosted a third round in Doha, and engaged Iranian officials in Armenia; US Vice President Vance is also advancing the negotiations, and both sides are reviewing the latest proposals to bridge differences.

The report cited people familiar with the matter as saying that Iranian Supreme National Security Council Secretary Rezaei has publicly stated that Iran will not negotiate on the nuclear issue before the United States meets Iran's conditions, but has privately shown greater openness to discussing the nuclear issue. Iran's main demands include unfreezing assets, lifting oil sanctions, and ending the US maritime blockade of Iranian ports. The main disagreement on the nuclear issue concerns the disposal of highly enriched uranium stockpiles: Trump demands that Iran hand over its stockpile, while Iran refuses to transfer enriched uranium out of the country; earlier discussions considered diluting it domestically under the supervision of international inspectors.

The report also said that the US and Israeli militaries have prepared a target list for strikes on Iran, including energy and critical economic infrastructure. Iran warned that it would expand the scope of retaliation if attacked again, while Iranian leadership is also discussing withdrawal from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. Gulf states are concerned that renewed conflict could affect their economies, and Gargash, diplomatic adviser to the UAE president, called for resolving the crisis through diplomatic channels.
