More context

Iran sent a new nuclear proposal to the United States through Qatar but wants Washington to meet seven demands before negotiations begin, a senior Iranian official told Reuters. The official, speaking anonymously, said the United States was reviewing the proposal but did not describe its contents. Tehran has linked further talks to its demands, while Washington has said nuclear issues must be part of any initial negotiations.

The New York Times separately reported that Iran is reviewing proposals from mediators on the future of its nuclear program, citing five officials briefed on the discussions. The officials, including an American and two Iranians, described the proposals as “concrete” but did not disclose their terms. The Times called the proposals a possible breakthrough in efforts to end the war. As of Thursday, both governments were assessing the mediators’ latest proposals, it reported.

Hindustan Times and Iran International also report that Iran sent a nuclear proposal through Qatar, attributing that development to Reuters.
