Between Washington y Tehranalways passing by Islamabadthere is an exchange of peace proposals. The drafts are modified, the limits of the framework are transformed, the clauses are eliminated or added back to the taste of each side and the give and take continues to extend over time. Meanwhile, the leaders of both countries they renew their threatsincreasingly focused on the possibility of restart violence on the verge of one month of the ceasefire between USA e Iran. At the same time, this has never stopped over the south of the Lebanonwhere more than 40 people have been killed by Israeli airstrikes in the last 24 hours.
During another chaotic statement to the press, the US president Donald Trump He said this Saturday that he will study the new Iranian peace proposal, although he questioned whether he would accept it. “If they misbehave, if they do something badbut right now, we’ll see. It is a possibility that could happen, without a doubt,” said the Republican president when asked if he could order new attacks. Also on Saturday, a senior Iranian military official indicated that restarting the war is the “most likely scenario.” “The evidence shows that The US is not committed to reaching any agreement or treaty, and our armed forces are fully prepared for any new adventure or stupidity of the Americans,” declared the Second Commander General of the Iranian Army, Mohammad Jafar Asadi, in a statement.
14 point proposal
Iran presented an updated 14-point proposal to the United States on Thursday. The details are not known, but the American media Axios has revealed some specificities. Two sources informed about the text affirm that it establishes “a period of one month for negotiations on an agreement to reopen the Strait of Hormuzend the US naval blockade and definitively end the war in Iran and Lebanon.” “Only after reaching said agreement would another month of negotiations begin to try to reach a agreement on the nuclear program“, the two sources have said. Iran has 440 kilos of highly enriched uraniumat levels very close to those necessary for the bomb, and defends that it is their “sovereign right” and part of the “Iranian national heritage.”
Throughout Saturday, Trump reviewed the Iranian proposal and shortly afterward wrote in Truth Social that he “can’t imagine this is acceptable.” Iran “You haven’t paid a high enough price yet. for what it has done to humanity and the world over the last 47 years,” he added. This give and take between the two great powers is putting the world economy in check. The news of the Iranian proposal briefly caused oil prices to drop almost a 5%although they continue around a 50% above pre-war levels, amid the continued closure of Hormuz. The blocking of the navigation of Iranian ships by the United States in this strategic route is further suffocating the Persian economydamaged by decades of international sanctions.
