00:00They're not going to have enrichment and they're not going to have a nuclear weapon.
00:28And they know that they're going to get on to being a great trading.
00:32In the past few hours, quiet diplomatic channels in the Middle East have lit up with something unexpected, a new U.S.-Iran deal framework, brokered not by Washington or Tehran alone, but by Turkey, Qatar and Egypt.
00:49If implemented, this could reshape nuclear tensions, regional security and power dynamics across the Middle East.
00:58For years, U.S.-Iran relations have been defined by sanctions, nuclear standoffs and proxy conflicts.
01:07Previous agreements collapsed under political pressure, mistrust and violations on both sides.
01:13This new framework is being described as narrow, temporary and tightly controlled, designed not to solve everything, but to stop escalation.
01:25Let's break down what's actually on the table.
01:28First, Iran would commit to zero uranium enrichment for three years.
01:35That's significant.
01:36Zero enrichment means no fuel buildup, no rapid breakout capability and no ambiguity.
01:43After those three years, Iran would be allowed to enrich uranium at under 1.5 percent, far below weapons-grade levels and even below what's typically needed for civilian nuclear energy.
01:58This clause signals containment, not expansion.
02:01Second, Iran's existing stockpile of highly enriched uranium would be transferred out of the country to a third-party state.
02:12This removes the most immediate risk, materials that could be rapidly weaponized, and places them under external supervision.
02:20In short, Iran keeps the program but loses the leverage.
02:25Third, Iran agrees to halt the transfer of weapons and advanced technologies to regional, non-state allies.
02:34This directly affects proxy groups across the Middle East and aims to cool flashpoints in Lebanon, Gaza, Iraq, Syria, and Yemen.
02:45It's one of the most politically sensitive elements of the deal and one of the most consequential.
02:51Fourth, Iran pledges not to initiate the use of ballistic missiles.
02:57This doesn't eliminate missiles, but it places a clear red line on first use, reducing the risk of sudden escalation or miscalculation.
03:08Finally, Iran and the United States would enter a mutual non-aggression agreement.
03:13No direct attacks, no first strikes, no covert escalation turning into open war.
03:22Why this matters?
03:24This framework isn't a grand peace deal.
03:27It's a stability pause.
03:29A chance to reduce nuclear risk, limit regional violence, and buy time for broader negotiations.
03:35Whether it holds depends on trust, verification, and political will, all of which are in short supply.
03:44But for now, this proposal signals one thing clearly.
03:49Both sides are trying to step back from the edge.
