Iran Submits 14-Point Peace Proposal to US; Trump Rejects Offer Amid Ongoing Talks

Iran has submitted a 14-point peace proposal to the United States via Pakistan, aiming to end the ongoing Middle East conflict within 30 days rather than extending the current ceasefire. Key demands include US troop withdrawal, lifting of sanctions, release of frozen Iranian assets, compensation for damages, and security guarantees against future attacks. The plan also addresses reopening the Strait of Hormuz and calls for cessation of hostilities including in Lebanon. The US, represented by former President Donald Trump, has expressed skepticism and rejected the proposal as unacceptable, maintaining military options remain on the table. Talks are mediated by Pakistan, with Iran reviewing the US response while nuclear issues remain a separate, complex matter in negotiations.
