What we know
A regional official involved in mediation told AP that the proposal associated with Trump’s weekend announcement calls for the U.S. and Iran to resume negotiations, reopen Hormuz, and halt regional attacks—including by Iran-backed militias—while Washington would end its naval blockade and allow Iranian oil exports under a tentative ceasefire arrangement.
Regional outlets described variants including a toll-free reopen window and renewed talks based on a prior memorandum of understanding. None of the full texts were published Sunday.
