Welcome back to early start. New developments in the global effort to convince iran to abandon its nuclear program. Six world powers including the u. S. And russia have a plan. And theyre going to present it to the iranians in talks next tuesday. The goal is to offer serious economic incentives in exchange for irans shutting down uranium enrichment facility and surrendering the stockpile of urani uranium. We have details of this new proposal. Whats new about it . I know last year they tried to do this and they didnt go for it. Whats new here . Thats right. Its been about a year since the u. S. And the partners sat down with iran over the nuclear program. Theyve been making a good deal of progress on the developments since that time. So theyre sweetening the pot, so to speak, and asking more of ire ran in return whether they sit down next week in kazakhstan. In exchange for easing the ban on the trade of gold and Precious Metals to iran and some nuclear fuel for peaceful purposes, iran must close its enrichment facility at a plant that is underground. The longer iran keeps this underground facility open and becomes more difficult to stop them militarily from having the uranium needed for a nuclear weapon. They want them to ship out the uranium they have made to a high purity level. Iran rejected the plan. My sources are saying that expectations are low for the talks because iran has its elections coming up in june. Nobody thinks the iranians are ready to make a deal before that. They dont want to be seen as making concessions to the west before these elections. But irans economy is really hurting because of these biting sanctions the u. S. And European Union slapped on them. This ban on oil and in the last year alone, iranian currency has fallen 80 . So the u. S. And its partners feel its good to get the talks going, see what iran wants. The hope is maybe theyll feel the crunch and deal seriously after the elections because people are really hurting. All right, thank you so much. 18 minutes past the hour.
