Iran has reportedly proposed transferring a portion of its enriched uranium to China as part of a potential peace deal with the United States, according to recent media reports. The demand underscores Tehran’s cautious approach amid ongoing indirect negotiations aimed at easing tensions between the two nations. According to sources cited by NDTV, Iran is seeking formal guarantees from China before agreeing to any such arrangement, signaling its reluctance to proceed without external assurances.
The proposed uranium transfer is being discussed within the broader framework of diplomatic efforts to revive the 2015 nuclear agreement, which the US exited under former President Donald Trump in 2018. Under that deal, Iran had agreed to limit its uranium enrichment in exchange for sanctions relief. However, since the US withdrawal, Iran has progressively breached its commitments, enriching uranium to higher levels and reducing international monitoring.
