Iran’s 10-point proposal to end the war included an end to Israeli strikes against Hezbollah, the New York Times reported on Monday night, citing two senior Iranian officials.
Instead of a temporary ceasefire, the proposal calls for a complete end to the attacks, an end to Israeli strikes against Hezbollah in Lebanon, and the lifting of all sanctions, the NYT wrote.
While the proposal did include Iran reopening the Strait of Hormuz, a condition that US President Donald Trump has made clear is a priority, ships would be charged roughly 2 million USD to cross the strait under the terms put forth in Iran’s proposal.
The funds would be split with Oman, and Iran would use its proceeds to reconstruct infrastructure destroyed by US and Israeli attacks, according to the plan, the NYT reported.
Trump has set a deadline of Tuesday night for Iran to reopen the strait, threatening to rain “hell” on Tehran if no deal is reached to do so.
When asked about the proposal on Monday, Trump called it a “significant step,” but added that it was “not good enough.”
