Iranian foreign minister says Tehran in talks with mediators to implement 7-day plan with US
Tehran is weighing a shorter two-day version after Qatari mediators delivered revisions that link reopening the waterway to sanctions relief and a ceasefire.
- On Wednesday, Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said Iran is discussing a seven-day plan with mediators aimed at ending the Middle East war and reopening the Hormuz Strait.
- The conflict, launched by the United States and Israel in February, has disrupted global shipping while Iran claims control over the waterway and the United States maintains a naval blockade.
- Qatari mediators presented a new draft deal on Sunday featuring a seven-day timeline of daily confidence-building steps; a senior Iranian official dismissed prior proposals as "unacceptable ideas and not an offer."
- White House Principal Deputy Press Secretary Anna Kelly stated on Wednesday the blockade will remain in full force, while Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu faces pressure to resume attacks.
- Araghchi said the plan could reopen the strait if "necessary conditions," including a Middle East ceasefire, are met, though tensions persist after Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia's Ras Tanura refinery.
