Iran Offers US Plan to Reopen Hormuz Strait, End War; FM Heads to Russia
Iran has put forward a new diplomatic proposal to the United States aimed at reopening the strategic Strait of Hormuz and ending ongoing hostilities, according to multiple reports. The proposal, reportedly delivered through intermediaries, focuses on immediate de-escalation while delaying contentious nuclear negotiations to a later stage.
Under the plan, Iran is willing to ease restrictions on shipping through the Strait of Hormuzāone of the worldās most critical oil transit routesāin exchange for steps such as lifting blockades and reducing military pressure. The proposal reflects a phased approach, prioritizing ceasefire and maritime stability before addressing nuclear issues that have long stalled talks.
At the same time, Iranās Foreign Minister has embarked on a diplomatic visit to Russia, signaling Tehranās efforts to coordinate with key allies and strengthen its geopolitical position amid the crisis.
However, the proposal faces significant challenges. The United States has maintained that any agreement must include firm commitments from Iran on its nuclear program, making acceptance of a limited deal uncertain.
The situation remains tense, with the Strait of Hormuz playing a central role in global energy supply. Any disruption or reopening of the route has immediate consequences for oil markets and international trade, raising the stakes for ongoing diplomatic efforts.
