(Central News Agency, West Palm Beach, Florida / Dubai, May 3, comprehensive foreign report) Iran announced today that it has received the United States' response to its latest peace negotiation proposal. Al Jazeera reported that Iran's plan is divided into three main stages, aiming to transition from a ceasefire to ending the war within 30 days.
Reuters reported that, according to Iranian state media, the United States has conveyed its response to Iran's 14-point proposal through Pakistan, and Tehran is currently reviewing it. Washington and Islamabad did not immediately confirm this response.
Iranian media reported that Tehran's 14-point proposal includes the withdrawal of US troops from surrounding areas, lifting blockades, unfreezing assets, payment of compensation, lifting sanctions, cessation of hostilities on all fronts (including Lebanon), and the establishment of a new control mechanism for the Strait of Hormuz.
Al Jazeera, citing sources, reported that Iran's plan is divided into three main stages, aiming to transition from a ceasefire to ending the war within 30 days.
The first stage would gradually open the Strait of Hormuz and lift US blockades on Iranian ports. Tehran would be responsible for addressing mine issues.
The second stage stipulates that Iran can resume 3.6% purity enrichment activities after the deadline, based on the "zero storage principle." The plan requires the US and Israel not to attack Iran and its allies; in exchange, Iran will not launch attacks. The proposal rejects dismantling nuclear infrastructure or destroying Iranian facilities, while also demanding the lifting of sanctions, including the gradual unfreezing of funds.
In the third stage, Tehran suggests strategic dialogue with Arab neighbors to establish a security mechanism covering the entire Middle East.
Iranian state media quoted Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei as saying: "At this stage, we have no nuclear negotiations." This indicates that Iran proposes to postpone dialogue on nuclear issues until after the war ends and both sides agree to lift the blockade of shipping in the Persian Gulf.
Trump said yesterday that he had not yet seen the exact content of Iran's peace proposal, but he would very likely reject it.
He wrote on social media: "I will review Iran's newly submitted plan soon, but it's hard to imagine it being accepted, as Iran has not yet paid a sufficient price for what they have done to humanity and the world over the past 47 years."
The proposal to postpone nuclear talks to a later stage clearly contradicts Washington's repeated demands for Iran to accept strict restrictions on its nuclear program before the war ends.
Washington wants Tehran to abandon over 400 kilograms of highly enriched uranium reserves, which the US believes could be used to make nuclear bombs. Iran states its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes but is willing to negotiate some restrictions in exchange for sanctions relief.
An unnamed senior Iranian official revealed that Tehran believes the latest proposal to "temporarily set aside nuclear issues for later stages" is a significant adjustment in position to facilitate an agreement.
The official stated: "Under this framework, more complex nuclear issues negotiations are postponed to the final stage to create a more favorable atmosphere." (Compiled by: He Hongru) 1150504
