Iran has suggested assembling a group of Middle Eastern nations to support uranium enrichment with financing from the United States.

The proposal was made during a May 11 meeting in Oman between Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff. Tehran sees this initiative as a substitute for Washington's insistence that Iran's nuclear program be completely stopped. 

With Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates identified as possible consortium members, Iran is reportedly hoping to create a framework for uranium enrichment in the area that incorporates not only Iranian resources but also the involvement of important Middle Eastern countries.

Under this plan, Iran would be permitted to enrich uranium to a level of 3.67% purity for peaceful purposes and to supply it to other Arab countries for use in civilian nuclear projects. The inclusion of international oversight, with observers from different nations, including U.S. nuclear experts, present at Iran's nuclear facilities, is a crucial component of the proposal. This feature aims to make things more transparent and guarantee that enrichment activities are only used for non-military, peaceful purposes.

The fourth round of negotiations between Iran and the United States, mediated by Oman, took place on May 11. Previous rounds were held in Muscat on April 12, Rome on April 19, and again in Muscat on April 26. Throughout the discussions, Araghchi has led the Iranian delegation, while Witkoff has represented the U.S.
