Tehran has proposed reopening the Strait of Hormuz first, and then focus on nuclear talks, according to the report<\/strong><\/p>\n

Iran has made the US a new proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and end the war \u2013 postponing nuclear negotiations to a later stage to break the deadlock in the high-stakes talks, Axios reports, citing sources.<\/p>\n

An unnamed US official and two other sources familiar with the matter told the outlet that Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi mentioned the plan during back-to-back visits to Islamabad, informing the Pakistani, Egyptian, Turkish, and Qatari mediators that Iran\u2019s leadership has no internal consensus on how to address Washington\u2019s nuclear demands.<\/p>\n

The US has insisted that Iran dismantle its nuclear program and hand over all of its enriched uranium.<\/p>\n

The proposal, which was delivered to the White House via Pakistani intermediaries, reportedly focuses on extending the ceasefire or even ending the war, as well as lifting the US blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, a critical chokepoint accounting for 20% of the world\u2019s seaborne oil trade. Nuclear talks would not start until the blockade is lifted, according to the reported plan.<\/p>\n

Iran\u2019s nuclear program has long been at the center of the dispute between Washington and Tehran. It took the Obama administration more than two years of intensive international talks to produce the landmark 2015 nuclear deal which addressed similar issues, only for President Donald Trump to withdraw the US from it in 2018.<\/p>\n

According to Al-Mayadeen, Tehran has floated a three-stage framework: End the hostilities and secure binding guarantees against renewed attacks on Iran and Lebanon; establish a new legal regime for managing the Strait of Hormuz in coordination with Oman; and in the third stage, address the nuclear issue.<\/p>\n

The new offer comes after US-Iran talks in Islamabad, which started after the sides announced a tentative ceasefire, failed to produce a breakthrough. On Saturday, hopes for diplomacy dimmed as Trump canceled a trip to the Pakistani capital by envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, saying, \u201cYou\u2019re not going to be making any more 18-hour flights to sit around talking about nothing.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

According to media reports, Iran has insisted on guarantees of US non-aggression, lifting all the sanctions, control over the Strait of Hormuz, and recognition of Iran\u2019s right to nuclear enrichment \u2013 dismissing US and Israeli accusations that it is seeking to acquire a nuclear weapon.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
