Trump has said Iran can never obtain a nuclear bomb. The proposal sent by Middle East Special Envoy Steve Witkoff was described as a "detailed and acceptable proposal to the Iranian regime," by White House spokesperson Karoline Leavitt, who added that "it's in their best interest to accept it."

The outline of the U.S. offer to Iran in their high-stakes negotiations over Tehran’s nuclear program is starting to become clearer.

A breakthrough would be an unexpected twist in the president’s diplomatic approach: After pulling out of the Obama-era Iran nuclear deal, he ordered the killing of Iran’s highest-ranking generals. Iran, in return, has been accused of hiring assassins to kill Trump during his 2024 campaign.
