### U.S. Nuclear Deal Proposal with Iran Sparks Contradiction

President Trump affirmed on Monday that the United States would not permit Iran to enrich uranium under any prospective nuclear agreement. This assertion clashes with what Trump's envoy, Steve Witkoff, proposed to Iran on Saturday, as reported by Axios.

Trump's firm declaration appeared on Truth Social, stating, "Under our potential Agreement - WE WILL NOT ALLOW ANY ENRICHMENT OF URANIUM!" This emphatic statement signals a strict stance that may not align with the more nuanced approach presented in the U.S. proposal revealed by insiders.

According to two sources familiar with the U.S. offer, the proposal allows for limited low-level uranium enrichment on Iranian soil for an unspecified period. Further, Witkoff's proposal does not demand the complete dismantlement of Iran’s nuclear facilities, showcasing a willingness to compromise on key issues.

Despite public affirmations from administration officials like White House envoy Steve Witkoff and Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who have stressed a zero-enrichment policy and the dismantlement of nuclear facilities, this behind-the-scenes flexibility points to a potentially different strategy.

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt acknowledged the detailed and acceptable proposal sent to Iran, which aims to break the deadlock in negotiations over uranium enrichment. The proposal is intended to meet Iran's requests while ensuring constraints that ease international concerns about Iran's nuclear capabilities.

President Trump emphasized the urgency of resolving the Iranian nuclear issue, acknowledging both diplomatic and military avenues but emphasizing a preference for a peaceful accord that prevents Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons.

As these revelations come to light, the international community watches closely to see if Trump maintains his hardline stance or opens the door to more adaptive negotiation tactics.
