Key Points:
- Ahead of the US-Iran talks in Geneva, Israel remains uncertain about the US's negotiation strategy despite close coordination with the Trump administration, initially doubting the talks would yield results.
- The US issued an ultimatum requiring Iran to detail its concessions by Tuesday, with Iran expected to propose transferring half of its 60% enriched uranium abroad and diluting the rest domestically in exchange for easing sanctions.
- Iran’s proposal may not satisfy US demands as it allows Tehran to retain enough enriched uranium to potentially develop nuclear weapons, using it as a future bargaining chip.
- Iran has invited IAEA head Rafael Grossi to the talks, signaling a shift from hostility to cooperation, with the agency viewing uranium removal as a significant oversight success amid heightened concerns post
