HUNT VALLEY, Md. (TNND) — The U.S. will demand during its negotiations with Iran this weekend that it end its nuclear program, Vice President JD Vance said Wednesday.
He told reporters before leaving Hungary, where he campaigned for Prime Minister Viktor Orbán’s reelection, that the Trump administration will insist that Tehran hand over its ingredients for nuclear weapons.
“What the president has said is that we don’t want Iran to have the capacity to build a nuclear weapon. The president’s also said that we don’t want Iran enriching towards a nuclear weapon, and we want Iran to give up the nuclear fuel,” Vance said. “Those are gonna be our demands during the negotiation, and again, we’re gonna see what the Iranians are willing to give up.”
Tehran has released a 10-point proposal for its negotiations with the U.S. delegation, which includes Vance and envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kusner. The plan asserts Iran’s right to enrich uranium, which has civil and military uses, and calls for an end to the war, among other demands.
