Iran has responded to a US proposal by offering to transfer part of its highly enriched uranium stockpile to a third country, while firmly rejecting the dismantling of its nuclear facilities. This proposal comes amid ongoing military tensions and a shaky ceasefire following weeks of conflict. The US, led by President Donald Trump, has suggested that Iran allow maritime passage through the Strait of Hormuz in exchange for lifting its blockade on Iranian ports. Despite this, Iran's response emphasizes its demand for an end to US sanctions on oil sales and control over the Strait of Hormuz. The conflict, which has seen significant military actions, has already resulted in thousands of casualties and has severely disrupted global energy markets, pushing prices higher. As negotiations continue, both sides remain far apart on critical issues, particularly concerning Iran's nuclear program. The situation remains volatile, with ongoing threats of military action and further escalations in the region.
