Iran Proposes Reopening Strait of Hormuz Within Seven Days

correiodopovo.com.br (Portuguese) —

Iran has proposed reopening the strategic Strait of Hormuz within seven days, presenting conditions to the United States to end hostilities in the Middle East, according to Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi. Araghchi conveyed the proposal to US envoy Steve Witkoff on Tuesday in New York, listing seven conditions including a seven-day ceasefire, unfreezing $12 billion in Iranian assets, lifting oil sanctions, and ending the US naval blockade. The proposal follows a June agreement between Presidents Trump and Pezeshkian that collapsed due to differing interpretations. Iran also demands authorization for ships transiting the strait, with non-compliant vessels facing attacks.
