US Iran talks may restart in Islamabad next week with a 14 point MoU draft

Draft includes moving Iran’s enriched uranium to a third country

The US and Iran could resume negotiations as early as next week in Islamabad, the Wall Street Journal reports, citing people familiar with the discussions. Work is underway through mediators on a one-page, 14-point memorandum of understanding meant to set a framework for a month-long negotiation process to end the conflict. The draft reportedly covers Iran’s nuclear program, steps to reduce tensions in the Strait of Hormuz, and options for transferring Iran’s highly enriched uranium, but sanctions relief scope remains unresolved. If progress is made, the talks could be extended.
