The United States accepted Iran retaining uranium enriched to 3.67% inside the country, and Tehran agreed.

The understanding would let Iran keep the 3.67%-enriched material inside the country.

The scope of any inspectors' work has not been set.

A proposal would use a third country to lower the enrichment level of Iran's more highly enriched uranium. Washington wants Iran's existing stockpile enriched to 60% reduced, and an initial agreement on lowering enrichment is expected.

The 3.67% material is at a lower enrichment level than the 60% stockpile targeted for reduction.
