ISLAMABAD, (Daily Paklish) Iran said on Wednesday it was reviewing a new U.S. proposal, after sources said Washington and Tehran were closing in on a one-page memorandum to end the war in the Gulf while leaving tricky issues such as Iran’s nuclear programme for later.
An Iranian foreign ministry spokesperson, cited by Iran’s ISNA news agency, said Iran would convey its response soon via Pakistan, which hosted the war’s only peace talks and has since served as the main conduit for messages between the sides.
In an early morning social media post, U.S. President Donald Trump gave no details of any specific proposal but said the war could end if “Iran agrees to give what has been agreed to”. He later told the New York Post it was still too soon to consider face-to-face meetings to sign an agreement.
