Pakistan’s peace plan a ‘critical opportunity’ for US-Iran talks ahead of Trump deadline
Vance warns Iran ceasefire hinges on good faith talks
AI Summary
Pakistan has proposed a peace plan to de-escalate tensions between the US and Iran, brokered through contacts between Pakistani army chief Asim Munir, US officials, and Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi. The plan calls for an immediate cessation of hostilities and the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, followed by negotiations for a broader settlement within 15 to 20 days. This mediation effort comes as former President Trump issued a Tuesday deadline for a deal to allow traffic to resume through the Strait of Hormuz, a vital route for global energy supplies. However, Iran has rejected the deadline and has not immediately agreed to reopen the strait, seeking guarantees of a permanent ceasefire. Neither Washington nor Tehran has formally responded to the Pakistani proposal.
