Iran has presented a 14-point peace proposal to the United States through Pakistan, aiming to address the ongoing conflict that escalated following US and Israeli military actions against the Islamic State on February 28. This proposal is a direct response to the US's earlier nine-point plan, which included a suggested two-month ceasefire. Iran's demands focus on a 30-day resolution timeline, lifting economic sanctions, and guarantees against future military strikes. The plan also calls for ending military actions across the region, lifting the naval blockade, and withdrawing foreign forces. Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi emphasized that the decision now lies with the US, stating that Iran is open to either diplomacy or confrontation based on Washington's response. US President Donald Trump has indicated he will review the proposal but expressed skepticism regarding its acceptability, citing Iran's historical actions. Meanwhile, violence continues in the region, highlighted by recent Israeli airstrikes in Lebanon that resulted in casualties, despite an existing fragile ceasefire.
