Iran reviewing proposals on Tehran’s nuclear programme: Officials

Washington, D.C. Iran is reviewing proposals presented by chief mediator Qatar aimed at addressing differences with the United States about Tehran's nuclear programme, government officials from both West Asian countries said on Friday (November 6, 2026). The development is raising hopes that the two sides could be inching toward indirect talks on one of the thorniest issues that U.S.

President Donald Trump says must be resolved as part of any deal meant to end the more than eight-month-old war. But one of the officials stressed that Iran, at least at the moment, is unwilling to engage in negotiations with the Trump administration over its atomic activities until the U.S. agrees to several core conditions that Iran has been demanding be part of any ceasefire agreement.

Both officials were not authorised to comment publicly on the delicate negotiations and spoke on the condition of anonymity.
