Al Jazeera: Iran, US seek reciprocal steps on Strait of Hormuz and nuclear talks
Briefing by News4U · First published

The 2013 Joint Plan of Action and the 2015 JCPOA established phased reciprocal measures with IAEA verification, and recent US-Iran talks mediated by Qatar have explored similar mechanisms. [1]
