President Donald Trump said Tehran’s proposal would likely be rejected.
Tehran has submitted a comprehensive new peace plan, Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi said on Saturday, adding that “the ball is in the US court.”
Both the US and Iran have previously accused each other of putting forward unacceptable terms, as a ceasefire reached nearly a month ago has failed to produce an agreement.
Negotiations have been further complicated by the twin Iranian and US blockades of the Strait of Hormuz and the resumption of Israel’s bombing campaign in Lebanon.
“The Islamic Republic of Iran has submitted its plan to Pakistan as the mediator with the aim of permanently ending the imposed war, and now the ball is in the US court to choose between a diplomatic solution or a continuation of the confrontational approach,” Gharibabadi said, as quoted by Press TV.
According to Iranian media, the 14-point plan is a counterproposal to a nine-point document presented earlier by the US. News agencies have reported that Iran’s terms include security guarantees, the withdrawal of American troops from the region, the lifting of sanctions, and an end to the war “on all fronts,” including Lebanon.
Iran is also reportedly seeking compensation from the US and a new framework for the Strait of Hormuz.
In a post on Truth Social on Saturday, US President Donald Trump said he would review the plan soon but added that he could not “imagine that it would be acceptable.” The president previously told journalists that he was “not satisfied” with Iran’s terms and threatened to “blast the hell out of them and finish them forever.”
The US has demanded that Iran completely abandon its nuclear program and surrender its enriched uranium stockpiles, a condition Tehran has flatly rejected, insisting that its nuclear program is for civilian use only.
While the prospects for a peace deal remain uncertain, oil prices surged past $120 per barrel this week for the first time since 2022.
Iran and Oman can easily manage their own Strait of Hormuz within their own territories without anyone else’s unwanted warmongering interference. Why would Iran need any deal with the USA who have already repeatedly proven they can’t be trusted. It’s instead more prudent to live with the perpetual state of war imposed globally by the USA. Iran has more money coming in regardless of what the USA does

️️The world loves Iran and hates Anglo-Zionist imperialism https://news-pravda.com/world/2026/05/03/2279431.html
Just another stall tactic.
Stop mucking around with these conniving, lying terrorists GET BOMBING…
Turn it into hot glass. The Middle East is the source of all humanity’s misery.
The fact: Anglo American zionists have lost this war.
And the further this goes on it is only going to be worse for the anglo – american terorists.
Of course Iran since it’s winning is in a stronger position and therefore can come up with their condition for anglo -zionist regime to gratefully exit.
Empire is falling and the deceiver Trump is presiding the fall of the Empire that is loosing on all fronts

You aren’t supposed to get high on your own supply, friend.
Well said another woke pot sucking looser.
Sooner or later the US will have to come to terms, the longer this goes on the worse for them it will become. Bombing does not win wars, it hardens resolve and as we have seen Iran has a lot of that, to their endless credit.
