Iranian Media Reveals Latest Negotiation Plan: 14 Proposals Focused on Ending the War
On May 2, Xinhua News Agency reported from Tehran that Iranian media disclosed the latest negotiation proposal content recently transferred to the United States by Pakistan, the intermediary, totaling 14 points focused on "ending the war." The report stated that Iran is waiting for a formal response from the U.S.
According to Tasnim News Agency, the U.S. previously proposed a plan containing 9 points in response, while Iran presented 14 points in the latest proposal. The U.S. requested a two-month ceasefire in its proposal, but Iran emphasized that all issues should be resolved within 30 days, with a focus on "ending the war" rather than extending the ceasefire.
The main content of Iran's proposal includes ensuring no further military aggression, the withdrawal of U.S. troops from the surrounding areas of Iran, lifting the maritime blockade, unfreezing Iran's frozen assets, paying compensation, lifting sanctions, achieving peace on all fronts (including Lebanon), and establishing a new management mechanism for the Strait of Hormuz, among others.
According to Fars News Agency, Iran has drawn a firm "red line" through this proposal, presenting a clear roadmap for ending this imposed war.
On April 30, Iran transferred the latest negotiation proposal to the U.S. via Pakistan. U.S. President Trump stated on May 1 at the White House that he was "not satisfied" with the latest negotiation proposal from Iran. He had received the latest briefing from the U.S. Central Command regarding military options and mentioned that he had two options: military escalation and reaching an agreement, but he "preferred to reach an agreement."
Iran proposed a 14-point negotiation plan to the U.S. on May 2, 2023, aiming to end the ongoing conflict. The proposal emphasizes immediate results on military withdrawal and sanctions lifting, contrasting with the U.S.'s earlier 9-point plan. Iran is currently awaiting a formal response from the U.S. regarding these terms.
