The White House has demanded that Iran hand over its enriched uranium to the United States as part of ongoing negotiations to end the conflict. Spokesperson Karoline Leavitt stated that President Trump wants a "unified" Iranian response on a ceasefire but has not set a specific deadline for compliance. This demand represents a significant escalation in US diplomatic pressure on Tehran amid the ongoing maritime blockade and regional tensions. The uranium transfer would be a major concession that Iran has previously resisted in nuclear negotiations.
