Iran Offers Trump Seven-Day Peace Plan to Reopen Strait of Hormuz, Restart US Talks
- On Thursday, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi proposed reopening the Strait of Hormuz within seven days if the United States eases military pressure and lifts port blockades, building on June's Memorandum of Understanding.
- The Strait, through which nearly 22 million barrels of oil passed, has emerged as the central conflict issue, while President Donald Trump warned Iran on Tuesday it faces a choice between agreement and "annihilation."
- Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian stated Tehran is willing to dilute its 60 percent enriched uranium stockpile and allow International Atomic Energy Agency inspectors to return if an agreement is reached.
- While the White House confirmed ongoing indirect discussions, officials declined to comment on the specific proposal Araghchi outlined, leaving it unclear whether the United States will accept the conditions.
- Araghchi noted that while a deal before midterm elections would be preferable, Iran is in no hurry, as the United States currently maintains strong control over the waterway.
