Iran has proposed a comprehensive plan to the United States aimed at ending their ongoing conflict, according to regional sources. The plan includes a regionwide ceasefire lasting up to 60 days, a gradual reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, and an end to the US blockade on Iran. The talks, mediated by Qatar, Pakistan, and Egypt, took place on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in New York.
The Iranian proposal also seeks to halt attacks on Arab neighbors during the ceasefire period. US President Donald Trump has previously ruled out lifting the blockade without Iran demonstrating sufficient goodwill. The Iranian road map is seen as a detailed agenda for future negotiations to reach a comprehensive resolution of the conflict.
US officials have been attempting to persuade Arab nations to engage in dialogue with Iran to achieve reconciliation, with potential talks set to occur in Oman. Trump's efforts to end the Iran war align with his desire to secure a significant diplomatic victory ahead of the midterm elections.
