Russia Offers Mediation Between US and Iran, Revives Uranium Storage Proposal
As part of its diplomatic initiative, Moscow has reiterated its willingness to receive and store Iran’s enriched uranium stockpile if the issue becomes an obstacle to negotiations.
The proposal is intended to help address one of the central disagreements between Washington and Tehran over Iran’s nuclear programme. Russian officials have indicated that the uranium storage arrangement could be reconsidered if it helps advance broader diplomatic efforts.
Moscow has also emphasized the importance of maintaining diplomatic channels, noting that Iran’s nuclear programme remains a recurring subject in discussions between Russian and US officials.

Meanwhile, disagreements between Washington and Tehran over Iran’s nuclear activities and the wider regional security situation remain significant challenges to diplomatic progress.
Official responses from the United States and Iran to Russia’s renewed mediation offer and uranium storage proposal have yet to be announced, according to the information provided.
