Trump set to lift US sanctions on Iran, free billions and unlock uranium enrichment in unexpected Obama-style peace proposal
The Daily Mail ^ | 05/06/2026 | Phillip Nieto

Donald Trump is on the verge of securing a sweeping peace deal with Iran that would lift US sanctions, free billions in frozen assets and open a path to uranium enrichment, mirroring the Barack Obama pact he spent years trashing.

If signed, a 30-day window would open for both countries to negotiate a larger agreement covering the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, the lifting of all US sanctions on Iran, and new limits on its nuclear program.

The deal calls for Iran to halt all uranium enrichment for 12 to 15 years with automatic extensions if Tehran violates the terms, according to Axios.

Another key provision would have the regime remove its highly enriched uranium stockpile from the country***

Trump has been at pains to avoid anything resembling the 2015 Obama deal he spent years trashing as the 'worst deal ever.' But the emerging framework echoes it in striking ways: sanctions lifted, frozen billions released and Iran capped at the same 3.67 percent enrichment level agreed to by Obama.

***

Trump's latest proposal does not appear to place any limits on Iran's ballistic missile program.

However, the regime would commit to further nuclear inspections, including snap reviews by UN specialists and investigators.

The lifting of sanctions imposed on Iran and the release of billions in frozen Iranian funds from across the globe would be a gradual process, according to US officials.

*** Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth insisted Tuesday that the ceasefire is holding even as he admitted Iranian forces had attacked US troops nearly a dozen times since the pause in fighting.

***

Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Dan Caine said Iran had attacked 'attacked US forces more than ten times' since the ceasefire began last month.***

If True, and that is a big if,
Trump has surrendered to Iran.

Impeachable offense.

Yup. I’ve been searching for confirmation all morning since seeing random ‘reports’.

I don’t rank dm as ‘confirmation’...but the headline is disturbing to state the least.

All that military action for this? Very foolish to not finish them off, while we got them on the ropes. The regime can still be their terrorist selves. Inspections’? Yeah sure, the bustards can’t be trusted.

Many months later after the Japanese unconditional surrender some in the Japanese army were attacking the US, In FACT there were holdouts even 30-years later!

Did that mean Japan did not surrender? Those of us who live in reality understand a fragmented people will not be perfectly aligned to the country’s goals and commitments, that does not mean the country as a whole is represented by such holdouts.

There’s at least 5 stories on FR right now that say the same thing.

The foolish attempt to get “Independent” votes in Mid-Terms,
will be more than offset by MAGA votes staying home.

FR -some threads are total surrender forums. Trump is going to surrender to Iran the way King Arthur surrenders to the Black Knight who has no limbs. And for the same reason

5 stories from the same LSM propogandist media that recites from the same script.

You are not making the point you think you are making.

It’s the opposite. For some odd reason Trump is still clinging to the Tucker Carlson nutjob fringe of “MAGA” and expecting they will GOTV for the GOP without him on the ticket in the midterms if he completes a U turn on Iran. Their support is never coming back but the consquences of a weak deal with Death to America Iran will stay with us forever.

Trump does not cling

He is managing this Iran conflict with his usual tact. You can trust him or not. Whatever.
