- The nuclear dispute between two parties has prevented them from reaching their final agreement. The United States and Iran stopped their negotiations because they could not reach an agreement while discussing nuclear matters. The two parties disagreed about uranium enrichment because the United States wanted Iran to stop all uranium enrichment activities for 20 years. Iran rejected this idea and offered a shorter suspension period of five years. The two parties failed to find common ground between their opposing positions.
- The US government previously held a more rigid position. The US government demanded that Iran stop all uranium enrichment activities forever. During negotiations, this demand was reduced to a long-term suspension of 20 years, but Iran did not agree.
