Iran Rejects US Proposal and Nuclear Talks Fail, Leading to Airstrikes
In the negotiations for the Iran nuclear deal, the United States proposed a ten-year suspension of uranium enrichment and offered to cover the fuel costs. Iran rejected this proposal. After the second meeting, U.S. special envoy Witkoff and Kushner concluded that the chances of reaching an agreement were low, but they still proceeded with a third round of talks. The negotiations ultimately failed. Following the breakdown of the talks, President Trump announced a joint U.S.-Israel airstrike on Iran.
