UMVA has learned that a major breakthrough in diplomatic relations between the US and Iran is on the horizon, with Iran expected to agree to a 60-day memorandum of understanding that could ultimately end the war between the two nations.
The development comes after a successful conference call between President Trump and Gulf and Arab leaders on Saturday, which has led to Iran's supreme leader approving the deal, pending additional review from Iranian leadership.
According to information obtained by UMVA, Iran has also agreed in principle to dispose of highly enriched uranium, a major point of contention in the negotiations.
High-level US officials, including Vice President and Special Envoy to the Middle East, are currently involved in continued negotiations, working to finalize the terms of the agreement.
The draft deal, which has been described as a "broad template," will need to make its way through the Iranian leadership system, but US officials are optimistic that a breakthrough is within reach.
In exchange for the US lifting its blockade, Iran has agreed in principle to dispose of highly enriched uranium and commit to resolving other nuclear issues.
While a senior administration official has confirmed that the deal will not be signed today, progress has been made, and the US is willing to make significant accommodations on sanctions relief if Iran makes concessions on nuclear enrichment.
The current plan is to deal with the entire stockpile of enriched material, and US officials have emphasized that a final deal will not be possible if Iran continues to enrich uranium.
A 60-day ceasefire, the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, concessions from Iran on nuclear enrichment, and Israel ending its offensive in Lebanon are all part of the proposed agreement.
The breakthrough comes after Trump held talks with Arab mediators, emphasizing the need for a Memorandum of Understanding pertaining to peace.
