US seeks dismantlement of Iran's nuclear program, Witkoff says - WSJ

The Trump administration's opening demand in talks with Iran in Oman on Saturday would be the dismantlement of its nuclear program, the Wall Street Journal reported Friday citing the US president's special envoy Steve Witkoff.

Witkoff at the same time acknowledged that compromises might be needed to reach a deal over the disputed nuclear program.

“I think our position begins with dismantlement of your program. That is our position today,” Witkoff was quoted, addressing Iranian officials.

“That doesn’t mean, by the way, that at the margin we’re not going to find other ways to find compromise between the two countries.”

He added that “where our red line will be, there can’t be weaponization of your nuclear capability."
