Officials familiar with the negotiations say Iran will deliver its counter-proposal to a U.S. peace plan on Friday. The American proposal reportedly contains 15 points including nuclear disarmament and missile restrictions that Iranian leaders view as heavily favoring U.S. and Israeli interests.
WASHINGTON – A source with knowledge of ongoing diplomatic efforts says Tehran is anticipated to deliver its counter-proposal to an American peace plan today, aimed at bringing an end to the ongoing Middle Eastern conflict.
According to the informed source, intermediaries have notified President Donald Trump and senior White House staff that Iran’s response to the U.S. proposal would be forthcoming on Friday.
The conflict, which erupted when American and Israeli forces launched attacks against Iran on February 28, has since expanded throughout the Middle Eastern region.
Tehran has been examining a comprehensive 15-point proposal delivered through Pakistani diplomatic channels, which reportedly contains requirements for dismantling Iran’s nuclear capabilities, restricting its missile programs, and essentially transferring control of the strategically important Strait of Hormuz, based on multiple sources and published accounts.
A senior Iranian representative told Reuters on Thursday that government leaders had examined the American proposal and concluded it primarily benefited U.S. and Israeli objectives. However, the official indicated that diplomatic discussions remain ongoing.
