Iran, through Pakistani mediators, has presented the United States a new proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and end the war, while postponing nuclear negotiations to a later stage, US online media outlet Axios said Sunday, citing a U.S. official and two sources familiar with the matter.
The new proposal is aimed at breaking the current stalemate in the talks and bypassing the internal disagreements within the Iranian leadership about the scope of nuclear concessions it is willing to make, the report said.
However, reaching such a deal would leave U.S. President Donald Trump with little leverage to press Tehran to give up its stockpile of enriched uranium and suspend uranium enrichment, the report added.
Citing three U.S. officials, the report said Trump is expected to hold a situation room meeting on Iran with his top national security and foreign policy team on Monday.
