It has been suggested that Iran may present a new peace proposal to the US by Friday. The White House rejected Tehran's initial written offer for omitting topics of nuclear stockpiles and uranium enrichment. The Trump administration, meanwhile, views the naval blockade in the Strait of Hormuz as the most effective pressure tool to force Iran back to the negotiating table.
It has been alleged that Iran is preparing a new peace proposal to end the crisis with the US. According to reports in the US press, the Tehran administration is expected to convey its revised proposal to Washington by Friday. It is not yet clear whether the new proposal will be more comprehensive compared to the previous offer.
WHITE HOUSE REJECTED THE INITIAL PROPOSAL
The White House did not accept Iran's previously submitted written peace proposal. The Washington administration stated that the said proposal left Iran's nuclear stockpiles and uranium enrichment activities out of negotiations. Iran's first proposal was reported to focus solely on the Strait of Hormuz and naval blockade axis. The US side, on the other hand, signaled that an agreement would not be possible without the nuclear program heading being on the table.
US SEES BLOCKADE AS A LEVERAGE TOOL
The Trump administration considers extending the naval blockade around the Strait of Hormuz as the "best option" to force Iran back to the negotiating table. According to Washington, the blockade increases economic pressure by limiting Tehran's oil revenues and stands out as one of the most effective tools that could compel the Iranian administration into a more comprehensive agreement.
NUCLEAR PROGRAM DEADLOCK IN NEGOTIATIONS
The most critical issue between the parties remains Iran's nuclear activities. While the US demands clear commitments from Tehran regarding its nuclear stockpiles and uranium enrichment capacity, Iran's exclusion of these topics from its initial proposal has blocked the diplomatic process. Whether the new proposal will include these issues is seen as the most important factor determining the course of the crisis.
EYES ON THE NEW PEACE PLAN
The new proposal expected from Iran will indicate whether diplomatic contacts will resume between Washington and Tehran. However, the US's determination to maintain the blockade and Iran's stance on nuclear issues stand out as the biggest obstacles to the peace process.
