Special Envoy Steve Witkoff appeared on Fox News where he specifically underscored an Iranian uranium enrichment cap of 3.67%:
“The president’s message of peace through strength, it resonates throughout the world. This is not a threat on my part now, it is just a simple fact. The president means what he says, which is they cannot have a bomb. The conversation with the Iranians will be much about two critical points. One, enrichment – as you mentioned, they do not need to enrich past 3.67%. In some circumstances, they’re at 60% in other circumstances 20% – that cannot be. And you do not need to run, as they claim, a civil nuclear program where you’re enriching past 3.67%. So, this is going to be much about verification on the enrichment program and then ultimately verification on weaponization. That includes missiles, the type of missiles that they have stockpiled there, and it includes the trigger for a bomb. And I think we’re here to have, as the president indicated – and I take my direction from him every day that I go to work –, we’re here to see if we can solve this situation diplomatically and with dialogue. The first meeting was positive, constructive, compelling.
…the devil will be in the details of the document. And hopefully, we’ll have that high quality problem of getting the document drafted. But verification will be the key point that underguards this agreement if we’re fortunate enough to get there. And we’re going to have to have very tight verification. There hasn’t been much in the way of verification in the past several years, prior to our administration. That’s got to change, and if it changes, then we’ll have the basis for positive talks. And if it doesn’t change, then we’ll have to seek alternatives – which would not be good for anybody.”
