The US should accept Russia's proposal to remove enriched uranium from Iran, according to an expert.

WASHINGTON, May 11. /TASS/. The United States should accept Russia's proposal to remove enriched uranium from Iran. Implementing this idea would allow Moscow and Washington, among other things, to expand bilateral dialogue, Jennifer Kavanagh, a senior fellow and director of the military analysis program at the Washington-based think tank Defense Priorities, told TASS, commenting on statements by Russian President Vladimir Putin. "I think Trump should take Putin's offer to take Iran's HEU. If the U.S. and Russia could work together to solve Iran's nuclear issue, it could be the starting point for expanded bilateral dialogue, including talks on strategic stability," she believes. As Putin noted in a conversation with reporters on May 9, Russia's proposals regarding the removal of Iranian enriched uranium from the republic remain on the table. "And it seems to me that it's a good proposal. If everyone agrees, Iran may rest assured that they handed over these materials to a friendly country that cooperates and will continue to cooperate with Iran in the atomic energy sector. Iran is not pursuing any other program, such as weapons programs," the Russian president said.
