Iran Proposes Seven-Day Roadmap to End War with US

Iran has proposed a seven-day roadmap to end its war with the United States and lift the naval blockade of the strategic Strait of Hormuz, according to Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi. The plan, sent to Washington via mediators earlier this week, calls for implementing a June memorandum of understanding, including ending hostilities and reopening the strait. It also demands the release of $120 billion in frozen assets, lifting oil sanctions, and a complete ceasefire across all fronts within seven days. The proposal comes as the nearly seven-month conflict has disrupted global energy supplies. Analysts say the plan mirrors the June agreement, which collapsed due to vague language and reciprocal attacks, and note that significant progress before November's US midterm elections remains unlikely.
