Iran Proposes Seven-Day Plan to End War
Confirmed
In Short: In an effort to de-escalate tensions, Iran has proposed a seven-day plan to end the ongoing conflict with the United States, according to a statement by Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian, also known as Araghchi, at the United Nations General Assembly.
The proposal includes a ceasefire and the easing of restrictions on Iran's oil sales, followed by the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz on the seventh day, paving the way for renewed negotiations on Iran's nuclear program.
Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian, speaking to the United Nations, emphasized that Iran remains ready for talks but stressed that US military actions must cease for negotiations to proceed.
The Iranian proposal comes amid heightened tensions following the US and Israel's military actions against Iran on February 28, which escalated the conflict.
US President Donald Trump had previously warned that the US could 'completely destroy' Iran if no agreement was reached, setting a confrontational tone at the United Nations.
The proposal was communicated to the US through Iranian state media, reflecting Iran's desire to engage in dialogue despite the hostile rhetoric from both sides.
Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian's statement at the UN General Assembly highlighted Iran's readiness for talks, but also underscored the need for the US to halt its military actions before negotiations can begin.
What this adds
The Iranian proposal comes as tensions between the US and Iran are at their peak, with both sides delivering hostile speeches at the United Nations.
A Fox News poll previously showed that 71% of Americans believe the Trump administration lacks a clear strategy to end the conflict with Iran.
