Iran offers US deal to reopen Strait of Hormuz and delay nuclear talks

international relations armed conflict

Iran has presented a new proposal to the United States aimed at ending the war and reopening the Strait of Hormuz.

Under the suggested interim deal, Tehran would end its chokehold on the Strait of Hormuz in exchange for Washington ending its blockade of Iranian ports. The plan further calls for an extension of the ceasefire to allow both parties to work toward a permanent end to the fighting.

The proposal includes putting off nuclear negotiations, meaning the chokehold would be lifted without addressing the nuclear program. However, Trump is unlikely to support the proposal, as he seeks to end Iran's atomic program.
