Iran ready to limit uranium enrichment in deal with Trump – NBC

A senior Iranian official said Tehran is prepared to give up highly enriched uranium and accept strict limits on its nuclear program in exchange for the lifting of US sanctions, NBC News reported on Wednesday.

Ali Shamkhani, a top adviser to Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, told NBC in an interview that Iran would stop enriching uranium to weapons-grade levels, reduce its stockpile, and allow international inspections if the United States agrees to remove all economic sanctions.

Asked if Iran would sign such a deal immediately, Shamkhani said: “Yes.”

“It’s still possible,” Shamkhani said. “If the Americans act as they say, for sure we can have better relations… it can lead to a better situation in the near future.”
