  "summary": "Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has proposed a seven-day plan to the US to end fighting, reopen the Strait of Hormuz, and restart talks for a final peace deal. According to Araghchi, if the necessary conditions are met, the strait can be reopened and normal maritime passage restored within seven days.\n\nThe plan, as reported by several outlets, involves a cessation of all hostilities in the Middle East, including in Lebanon, and reportedly calls for the release of frozen Iranian assets estimated to be worth at least $12 billion, as well as the lifting of sanctions on Iranian oil and an end to the US naval blockade of Iran.\n\nThe US has reportedly been having positive, constructive discussions with Iran through mediators, and continues to discuss nuclear issues. Araghchi met with US President Donald Trump's envoy Steve Witkoff for talks on Tuesday, and said that if there is seriousness in the US side to come to a deal and reopen the Strait of Hormuz, everything is now prepared.",
