‘No dust? No dollars’: CNN reports on proposed US-Iran framework

A senior Trump administration official described the proposed US-Iran framework agreement in blunt transactional terms, saying Tehran would receive sanctions relief only if it gives up its stockpile of highly enriched uranium.

“No dust? No dollars,” the official told CNN, referring to uranium enrichment and economic concessions.

The report said the proposed arrangement is intended to ensure Iran can never obtain a nuclear weapon and would require Tehran to surrender its highly enriched uranium stockpile, although details of how that material would be disposed of remain unresolved.

“The important part of how this is structured is, if Iran doesn’t perform, they don’t get anything,” the official said, describing the arrangement as “trust but verify on steroids.”
