🇮🇷🇺🇸 Iran just handed Washington a rerun of the June deal, with the ending rewritten in Tehran's favor.
Foreign Minister Araghchi openly compared his new plan to the June 17 memorandum, the one that paused the war, briefly reopened Hormuz and then fell apart. This time, the proposal runs on a 7-day clock.
Within those 7 days, Iran wants fighting stopped on every front, including Lebanon, the U.S. naval blockade lifted, oil sanctions waived and its frozen funds released, with Tehran offering to reopen the Strait of Hormuz as part of the deal.
The nuclear program is a separate issue. A senior Iranian official told Reuters that Tehran won't budge on it even if Washington accepts this deal, and Hormuz stays shut until “all of Iran's conditions are met.”
Meanwhile, only 9 ships were recorded crossing the strait yesterday, on a route that normally carries about a fifth of the world's oil.
So the pressure is clearly building, and someone will have to make the next move.
