Trump’s edits to potential Iran agreement focused on Strait of Hormuz, enriched uranium, source says

President Trump’s edits to the U.S.-Iran memorandum of understanding included somewhat significant changes related to the Strait of Hormuz and the removal of highly enriched uranium, according to a source with knowledge of the negotiations.

The broad strokes of the memorandum include a 60-day cessation of violence, along with clauses that call for reopening the strait and a framework to reopen negotiations on Iran’s nuclear program.

Multiple sources told CBS that the arrangement also involves the potential of waivers or sanctions relief to Iran that could allow it to access billions in frozen assets depending on the progress of the diplomacy.

Mediators led by Pakistan are handling the back-and-forth between Washington and Tehran. Details of each exchange are limited. Mr. Trump had said Friday that he would make a final determination on the deal that day, but then further edits were sent to Iran. Mr. Trump told Lara Trump in an interview taped Thursday that he was in “no hurry” to make a deal.

The White House did not respond to a request for comment. Axios was the first to report Mr. Trump’s requested edits to the memorandum.
