Main provisions of the 2015 Iran nuclear deal abandoned by Trump
The 2015 accord lifted sanctions in exchange for limits on Iran’s nuclear program, but Iran later breached the terms and the deal collapsed.
- On Friday, a senior administration official in Islamabad stated the United States and Iran are nearing a tentative peace agreement to end the three-month-old war, with a potential signing ceremony possible within days.
- President Donald Trump withdrew the United States from the 2015 Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action during his first term and started the current war with Iran more than 100 days ago.
- The 2015 agreement restricted Iran's nuclear program by reducing centrifuges from 19,000 to 6,100 and capping enriched uranium stockpiles at 300 kilograms for 15 years, with the International Atomic Energy Agency granted wide-ranging inspection powers.
- Lifting the United States naval blockade of Iranian ports and resuming maritime traffic through the Strait of Hormuz are included in the proposed deal, along with Iran's pledge not to develop nuclear weapons.
- While Trump claims a new agreement would be "a good and proper one," critics question how it surpasses the 2015 deal; the Islamic Republic maintains it has never sought nuclear weapons, citing a 2010 fatwa from the late Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
