US proposed 20-year halt to uranium enrichment during Iran talks, media says

The U.S. proposed that Iran halt uranium enrichment for 20 years during end-of-war negotiations held in Islamabad, Pakistan, according to Israeli media. Citing sources familiar with the matter, the outlet reported that the U.S. offered to stop its attacks on Iran and unfreeze some of the country's assets. In return, Washington reportedly demanded that Iran cease uranium enrichment for two decades, transfer all of its highly enriched uranium abroad, and fully open the Strait of Hormuz. However, the Iranian delegation proposed a much shorter timeframe, and this disagreement was the main obstacle in the negotiations, the report added.
