US press reports: Trump makes changes to draft agreement with Iran

It has been reported that United States President Donald Trump has made changes to the latest draft submitted by Iran in the ongoing nuclear program negotiations and has returned this new text to Iranian officials. According to reports in the American press, Trump's new demands contain a much stricter approach compared to previous drafts, particularly regarding Iran's nuclear activities and the opening of the Strait of Hormuz. There has been no official statement from Washington regarding the process yet.

In a report by CNN International citing high-level US sources, it was emphasized that President Trump sent the revised document to Tehran, extending the negotiation period by another week. Officials state that the new language in the text includes clearer and tougher wording regarding Iran's nuclear commitments and demands for the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz to traffic. All details regarding the content of the negotiations remain confidential.

Although Trump gave the impression that the process was nearing its end with his statement last week, saying, "An agreement between the parties has been largely negotiated," it is known that a final consensus has not yet been reached. In another statement on May 29, Trump clarified the US position once again, saying, "The US will remove the enriched uranium found in underground facilities in Iran, and these nuclear materials will be disposed of." Furthermore, stating that the negotiation process had reached its final stage, he held a critical meeting with his advisors at the White House lasting approximately two hours to make his decision; it was reported that no concrete decision emerged from the meeting.

The Iranian side, for its part, announced that its priority is to end the tension and prevent a possible conflict. The Tehran administration says that uranium enrichment activities and other nuclear issues can be addressed after reaching a consensus on the proposal submitted to the US, which includes a 60-day memorandum of understanding.
