US offers $29m reward for details on Iran's nuclear program
A US State Department program, Rewards for Justice, "is offering a $US20 million reward — and possible relocation — for information on Iran's nuclear program".
The United States has announced it will offer up to $29 million in rewards and possible relocation for information about Iran's nuclear program. This initiative is part of the US government's Rewards for Justice program, which seeks crucial details regarding facilities, equipment, and scientific personnel involved in Iran's nuclear activities.
According to the US Central Command, Iran's leadership is reportedly reviewing the US proposals presented by chief mediator Qatar, suggesting the country may be leaning toward making a deal. Despite President Donald Trump's assertions that Iran's nuclear program has been effectively dismantled, Iran has indicated its willingness to engage in dialogue to resolve the crisis.
The State Department's Rewards for Justice program, a longstanding initiative to offer monetary incentives for information that safeguards American lives and interests, is providing a reward of up to $20 million and potential relocation for such information. The program's focus is on Iran's non-compliance with International Atomic Energy Agency safeguards obligations, leading to the loss of continuity in knowledge about Iran's production and inventory of key nuclear components.
