The United States is awaiting Iran's response to proposals aimed at ending over two months of conflict and initiating peace talks. While the US expected a reply within hours on Friday, no movement from Tehran has been observed. The proposals reportedly seek to formally end the current fighting before addressing more complex issues like Iran's nuclear program. Relative calm has been reported around the Strait of Hormuz following recent sporadic incidents. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio met with the Qatari Prime Minister to discuss regional stability, though Iran was not explicitly mentioned in the subsequent statement.
