US-Iran nuclear deal

US-Iran nuclear deal

Kelsey Davenport discusses the challenges in US-Iran negotiations over uranium enrichment. The US maintains that the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty does not grant the right to produce fissile material, while Iran insists on its sovereign right to enrichment. This stalemate makes an agreement unlikely unless a needs-based approach is adopted, allowing enrichment tied to specific milestones in nuclear reactor development, but capped at low levels. A new dashboard outlining possible scenarios in Iran's nuclear future is available for you now and updated monthly.
