NEW YORK, September 29, 2026: The latest U.S.-Iran diplomatic effort extends well beyond uranium enrichment. Nuclear restrictions, sanctions, frozen assets, maritime access and the Strait of Hormuz are now closely connected in the negotiating agenda.
Reuters reported that Iran’s latest proposal seeks an end to hostilities, sanctions relief, release of frozen assets and reopening of the Strait, followed by renewed negotiations on its nuclear program. Washington has continued to emphasize nuclear concerns.
Why the negotiations are complicated
The central difficulty is sequencing. Iran wants economic and maritime measures addressed, while the United States is seeking concrete nuclear commitments. Both sides also face questions about verification and implementation.
President Donald Trump has denied that he offered Iran sanctions relief and frozen funds for nuclear concessions, while Axios reported that U.S. officials said economic relief could be considered for concrete nuclear progress.
What to watch
Key developments include Washington’s response to Iran’s proposal, the mediators’ next meetings, the status of the Strait of Hormuz and whether the two sides can establish verifiable nuclear commitments.
