Iran may be willing to suspend or shut down parts of its nuclear programme to reduce tensions with the United States, The New York Times (NYT) reported, citing two unnamed Iranian officials. The comments suggest Tehran could be considering a significant compromise amid escalating diplomatic and military pressure.

Though Iranian leaders have publicly opposed stopping uranium enrichment, the officials told NYT that Tehran may be open to new terms that differ from its long-standing positions. One potential concession discussed was transferring enriched uranium to Russia.
