Iran has put on the table no enrichment at all for five years right now.
That is a significant difference from the Obama agreement.
There was no period of no enrichment in the Obama deal.
And the Obama deal, most of the restrictions expired after 10 years.

The Iranians put five years on the table.
The Americans said no 20 years.

Once each side puts a number on the table, usually you know that both sides are willing to negotiate.
The hardest part of it all is to get people to put any number on the table.
So that would be a significant difference.
The second difference would be, I think, that most of the restrictions would not expire in 10 years.
