Pak hands over Trump’s ceasefire proposal to Iran

There have also been reports that officials from the US and Iran could meet in Islamabad in the coming days.

The peace plan centered on sanctions relief, civilian nuclear cooperation, missile limits, a rollback of Iran’s nuclear program and monitoring by the International Atomic Energy Agency, reports The Hill.

It also includes opening up shipping access through the Strait of Hormuz. Since US-Israeli strikes began on 28 February, Iran has significantly limited vessels traveling through the key passageway used to transport oil, resulting in an increase in global energy prices.

On Monday, US President Trump said that previously threatened US strikes on Iranian energy infrastructure would not occur for five days after “productive conversations” with Tehran.

He also told reporters that same day that US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner spoke with their Iranian counterparts on Sunday.

Yesterday, the US president told reporters that he, US Vice President Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio, in addition to Witkoff and Kushner, are also involved in negotiations with Iran.
