What are the US and Iran's proposals for peace?

AI Summary

long article 4 min

According to reports, the US and Iran have presented proposals to end the ongoing war that began in late February with US and Israeli airstrikes. While the US claims talks are ongoing, Iran denies direct negotiations. The US proposal, reportedly a 15-point plan, demands Iran cease nuclear weapons development, dismantle related facilities, limit its missile program, stop funding regional proxies, and reopen the Strait of Hormuz. In return, all international sanctions would be lifted. Iran has offered a five-point counter-proposal, the details of which remain vague, though it rejects key aspects of the US plan. The US has neither confirmed nor denied the full details of its proposal.
