US-Iran War Key News
Central News Agency
(Central News Agency Washington, 8th, comprehensive foreign reports) US President Trump stated today that he expects to receive Iran's response tonight to Washington's latest proposal to end the Middle East war. According to foreign media reports, the proposal includes key points such as restricting Iran's nuclear program, lifting the blockade on the Strait of Hormuz, and easing US sanctions.
According to reports from CNN and Agence France-Presse, when asked by reporters outside the White House if he had received Iran's response, Trump said: "I am supposed to receive a letter tonight, and we will see what happens."
When asked further if he thought Iran intended to delay negotiations, Trump said he didn't know but "we'll find out very soon."
The Wall Street Journal reported that with the help of mediators, the US and Iran have drafted a one-page memorandum of understanding to set a 30-day framework for negotiations to end the US-Iran war. Here are the known key points of the proposal:
● Resumption of Negotiations: Negotiations could resume as early as next week in Islamabad, Pakistan.
● Nuclear Issue: Iran has for the first time expressed willingness to discuss its nuclear program. Both sides are studying the possibility of transferring some of Iran's highly enriched uranium stockpiles outside the country, but details such as the method of transfer and how long Iran will suspend uranium enrichment remain unresolved.
● Lifting the Strait of Hormuz Blockade: Iran will ease its blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, and the US will gradually lift its naval blockade on Iran during the 30-day negotiation period.
● Iran's Control over the Strait of Hormuz: No consensus has been reached on Iran's claim of permanent control over the Strait of Hormuz.
● US Sanctions Relief: The extent of sanctions relief is still a point of contention and could lead to a stalemate in negotiations.
● Negotiation Deadline: If negotiations progress smoothly, the one-month negotiation period can be extended by mutual agreement. (Compiled by: Chang Ming-hsuan) 1150509
