China has expressed its readiness to acquire or reduce about 440 kilograms of enriched uranium, which US President Donald Trump says should be removed from Iran as part of a deal to end the war, according to a diplomat familiar with Beijing’s vision on the matter, told the Associated Press.
For now, Trump appears to want the United States to retain the material believed to be buried under nuclear sites that were severely damaged in the US bombing last June. But China, Iran’s largest trading partner, is suggesting it would be ready if Washington and Tehran asked to move or lower levels of uranium, which could be used in civilian applications, said the diplomat, who asked not to be identified.
