Iran's Tasnim news agency reported on the 2nd (local time) that Iran presented a revised 14-point negotiation proposal to the United States, which includes the payment of war reparations and control over the Strait of Hormuz.
According to the report, the Iranian government delivered a proposal containing these details to Pakistan, the mediating country, as a response to the US's 9-point peace negotiation proposal.
Tasnim, a semi-official news agency linked to Iran's Revolutionary Guard, reported that Iran emphasized a complete end to the war on all fronts, including Lebanon, rather than just an extension of the ceasefire.
Tasnim news agency explained that while the US proposed a two-month ceasefire, Iran sent a stance to resolve all issues and end the war within 30 days.
The proposal sent by Iran reportedly included demands such as: ▲ payment of reparations for war damages ▲ guarantee against recurrence of military aggression ▲ withdrawal of US forces from areas around Iran ▲ lifting of Iran's maritime blockade ▲ lifting of sanctions against Iran, including frozen overseas assets ▲ end of war on all fronts including Lebanon ▲ establishment of a new mechanism for the Strait of Hormuz.
The new mechanism for the Strait of Hormuz is interpreted as a demand for Iran's right to control transit vessels, including collecting tolls.
A significant portion of Iran's demands included in this proposal is expected to be unacceptable to US President Donald Trump.
President Trump considers Iran's control over the Strait of Hormuz a non-negotiable issue.
In particular, it is highly unlikely that President Trump, who is seeking a justification for victory, will compromise on the payment of war reparations, which is the responsibility of a defeated nation.
This war began when the United States and Israel launched a surprise air raid on Iran on February 28, assassinating its top leaders, including Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
The US and Iran agreed to a ceasefire on the 8th of last month, but tensions escalated again after peace talks in Pakistan failed.
The Trump administration is continuing economic pressure on the Iranian regime by imposing a naval blockade on Iranian ports in response to Iran's blockade of the Strait of Hormuz.
Mediating countries, including Pakistan, are pushing for new talks based on Iran's latest proposal, but progress is uncertain as there is no common ground on key issues yet.
The Trump administration's key demands are Iran's abandonment of its nuclear program and the opening of the Strait of Hormuz.
Iran is continuously resisting US demands as hardliners, led by the Revolutionary Guard who advocate for war, have seized internal power and begun to dominate negotiations.
Earlier, Reuters reported that Iran proposed to the US that it would resume transit through the Strait of Hormuz and agree to an end to the war first, and then negotiate the nuclear issue.
According to the report, Iran demanded that in exchange for the US lifting sanctions against Iran after a peace agreement, talks would be held to limit Iran's nuclear program, and even if Iran agreed to suspend uranium enrichment, the US would recognize its right to enrichment for peaceful purposes.
President Trump said on his social media platform Truth Social today regarding Iran's proposal, "We will soon review the plan Iran just sent us."
However, he added, "It's hard to imagine that plan will be accepted, given that they haven't yet paid a sufficient price for what they've done to humanity and the world over the past 47 years."
The day before, President Trump also met with reporters at the White House before leaving for Florida for an event, expressing skepticism about Iran's proposal, saying, "They want a deal, but I'm not satisfied with it."
Before boarding Air Force One to travel from Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, to Miami today, he met with reporters and even mentioned the possibility of the US resuming attacks on Iran.
