A source close to the Iranian negotiating team told Tasnim that, unlike its previous texts, the United States has accepted in its new proposal to waive Iran’s oil sanctions during the negotiation period.
The source explained that waiving sanctions means the temporary relinquishment of sanctions.

Iran insists that the removal of all sanctions against the country must be part of the US commitments.

The United States, however, has proposed a waiver of OFAC (Office of Foreign Assets Control) sanctions until a final understanding is reached.
