WASHINGTON — The U.S. continues to review the European Union’s latest proposed deal to curb Iran’s nuclear program, saying it’s encouraged that some key demands have been dropped.
The Biden administration will respond at an appropriate time, a U.S. official said Monday, adding that delays by Iran have stretched on for months, and any suggestion the U.S. is now delaying the process is false.
The official said the U.S. sees it as a positive sign that Iran appears to have dropped some of its demands, such as lifting the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’ designation by the U.S. as a foreign terrorist organization.
