THE United States has sent Iran a 15-point peace plan, via Pakistan, in an attempt to end the war with Iran, now in its fourth week, The New York Times reported on Tuesday, citing two unidentified officials.
The Trump administration is eager to “find an offramp from the conflict as it grapples with its economic fallout”, said the report.
The plan addresses Iran’s ballistic missile and nuclear programmes and discusses maritime routes, referring to the Strait of Hormuz, it said.
However, it was unclear how widely the plan, delivered by way of Pakistan, had been shared among Iranian officials and whether Iran was likely to accept it as a basis for negotiations, said the report.
It was also unclear whether Israel was on board with the proposal, the report added.
Israel’s Channel 12 also reported on Tuesday that Washington has delivered Tehran a 15-point plan for a month-long ceasefire deal. — Xinhua
