Negotiations between the U.S. and Iran are reportedly progressing, with both sides indicating movement towards a potential agreement. Iran has stated that while a deal is taking shape, obstacles remain and frequent changes in U.S. positions are a concern. A draft memorandum for a proposed deal includes a 60-day ceasefire extension and a halt to fighting on all fronts. A senior U.S. administration official confirmed a broad commitment to the principles of a deal and expressed positive sentiment about the current standing of the talks. Iran has also reportedly agreed in principle to dispose of highly-enriched uranium. However, the U.S. is simultaneously preparing for potential new military strikes against Iran.
