Trump Says Iran Attack on ‘Hold’: What We Know About Latest Negotiations

Trump said a deal could still avert a wider war as Iran sent a revised 14-point peace plan and both sides traded demands over sanctions and enrichment.

  • United States President Donald Trump paused a planned strike on Iran after Tehran conveyed a new peace proposal through mediator Pakistan, citing a "very good chance" for an agreement.
  • Amid a ceasefire on "life support," direct talks in Islamabad stalled last week, prompting Tehran to submit a revised 14-point peace plan to end the six-week war.
  • The United States demands a moratorium on uranium enrichment for up to 20 years, while Iran possesses about 440kg enriched to 60 percent, and the Strait of Hormuz carries 20 percent of global oil and LNG supplies.
  • Following drone attacks on the Barakah Nuclear Energy Plant and Saudi Arabia, Trump wrote on Truth Social: "For Iran, the Clock is Ticking, and they better get moving, FAST, or there won't be anything left of them."
  • Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi confirmed a "deadlock" on enriched material last week, while friction persists over Iran's "proxy" armed groups known as the "axis of resistance" in the Middle East.
