A potential peace agreement between Iran and the United States would include nine clauses, Al Arabiya reported Friday, citing informed sources. The draft includes an immediate, comprehensive and unconditional ceasefire on all fronts, guarantees against targeting military, civilian or economic infrastructure, cessation of military operations, and an end to the media war, Al Arabiya reported.
The draft also stipulates respect for sovereignty and territorial integrity, non-interference in internal affairs, freedom of navigation in the Gulf, the Strait of Hormuz and Gulf of Oman, and the establishment of a joint monitoring and conflict resolution mechanism, it reported.
The draft would require negotiations on outstanding issues to begin within seven days, a gradual lifting of US sanctions in exchange for Iran’s compliance, and a commitment to the UN Charter, it reported. The initial agreement would take effect immediately upon official announcement by both sides, it reported.
A Pakistani source said “cautious optimism” characterizes ongoing discussions on the potential agreement, according to the report. Narrowing gaps is difficult because both sides “have high demands”, it reported, noting that Iran’s enriched uranium remains the sticking point.
