Iran agrees in principle to deal that would dispose of enriched uranium, US officials say

Iran has agreed in principle to a proposal that would include disposing of highly enriched uranium, a senior administration official told US reporters in a briefing on Sunday. 

The official noted that efforts to close a deal were still underway. 

The final agreement could see Iran reopening the Strait of Hormuz in exchange for the US lifting the blockade on Iranian ports.

CBS reported that the agreement would also see the US make accommodation for sanctions relief in exchange for Iranian accommodation on nuclear enrichment.  

The administration official told reporters that there was a “broad commitment” on the principles of the documents, and that the Trump team feels positive about where negotiations stand. 

This is a developing story.
