According to
Axios'
Barak Ravid, the Republican leader and his staff came to an agreement with the Middle Eastern nation to allow
Iran to conduct "low-level uranium enrichment on Iranian soil for a to-be-determined period of time." However, people on both the right and the left aren't thrilled with the accord.

Despite Middle East Envoy
Steve Witkoff and Secretary of State
Marco Rubio insisting they would not strike
a deal with Iran unless the country dismantled its uranium enrichment program, Barak Ravid claimed Donald Trump's administration proposed a deal to the Iranian leaders that did include enriching, though only for civilian use.
Per the alleged agreement, Tehran is required to temporarily reduce its enrichment concentration to 3% — which is significantly lower than the weapons-grade levels of 90%.

Although insiders have claimed the nuclear deal between Donald Trump's administration and Iran has been agreed upon with a uranium allowance, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt stayed relatively mum on the matter.
"President Trump has made it clear that Iran can never obtain a nuclear bomb. Special Envoy [Steve] Witkoff has sent a detailed and acceptable proposal to the Iranian regime and it's in their best interest to accept it," the media liaison said during a Monday, June 2, briefing. "Out of respect for the ongoing deal, the administration will not comment on details of the proposal to the media."

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer slammed the alleged move by Donald Trump and even created an acronym "T.A.C.O." — Trump Always Chickens Out — to express his frustration.
"When it comes to negotiating with the terrorist government of Iran, Trump's all over the lot," Schumer said in a video shared to X. "One day he sounds tough, the next day he's backing off. And now, all of a sudden, we find out that [Steve] Witkoff and [Marco] Rubio are negotiating a secret side deal with Iran. What kind of bull is this? They're going to sound tough in public and then have a side deal that lets Iran get away with everything? That's outrageous. We need to make that side deal public. Any side deal should be before Congress and most importantly the American people."
"If TACO Trump is already folding, the American public should know about it. No side deals," the Democrat added.

Even conservatives who have been supportive of Donald Trump have come out against the negotiations.
"I don't see them as being good faith actors in any way, shape or form. And the reality is they cannot be allowed to enrich uranium, period. End of story," Florida Governor
Ron DeSantis said during an interview with conservative radio host
Mark Levin about Iran. "They are a militant Islamic government. Their view of mutual destruction with
nuclear weapons is actually something they think would be fine because they think they're all going to go to heaven in paradise if that happens."
