Iran has presented the United States with a seven-day plan to reopen the strategically important Strait of Hormuz, according to Iran's deputy foreign minister, Hossein Araghchi. The plan was discussed in talks between Araghchi and US envoy Steve Witkoff on Tuesday. If the required conditions are met, the strait could be reopened and normal maritime passage restored within seven days, Araghchi stated at the UN on Friday.
Araghchi emphasized that the decision now lies with the United States, asserting that Iran will not accept coercion, threats, or intimidation and will not surrender its sovereign rights under pressure. He expressed confidence that if the US demonstrates genuine seriousness in reaching a deal and reopening the Strait of Hormuz, all necessary preparations are already in place.
Earlier reports suggest that the new plan includes a seven-day ceasefire in the Middle East, encompassing Lebanon as well.
