US preps for Iran nuclear endgame? Trump envoys consult atomic experts in secret visit

Reports suggest the Trump administration is preparing for a possible breakthrough in U.S.-Iran nuclear negotiations. According to Axios and Reuters, envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner recently visited Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Tennessee to consult leading nuclear experts who could support future talks with Tehran. The reported move comes as discussions over sanctions relief, frozen Iranian assets, uranium enrichment, and nuclear safeguards enter a critical phase. While no final agreement has been reached, the consultations indicate Washington is planning for potential implementation scenarios if a deal materializes. Major differences remain, but both sides continue to explore diplomatic pathways.
