U.S. Officials Report Receiving Verbal Commitments from Iran on Nuclear Materials

American officials have indicated they have obtained oral assurances from Iran regarding nuclear materials, according to reports. The officials emphasized that what matters most is what ultimately gets formalized through the negotiation process.

The verbal pledges represent an early development in ongoing discussions between the two nations. However, U.S. officials stressed that these initial commitments must be followed by concrete agreements reached through formal negotiations to constitute genuine progress on the nuclear issue.
