Trump says Iran uranium will be brought back to the USA

On 2026-04-17, U.S. President Donald Trump said in Phoenix, Arizona that the United States and Iran would remove uranium from Tehran’s nuclear sites and transfer it to U.S. territory under a peace deal. The remarks were made at a Turning Point USA gathering and were framed as a claim about ongoing Iran negotiations. Iran’s foreign ministry later denied that its enriched uranium would be transferred anywhere.
