Iran forwarded a 10-point ceasefire proposal to the US

“Iran has conveyed its response to the US proposal to end the war through the intermediary Pakistan,” Iran’s state news agency said. IRNA reported on April 6.

According to IRNA, the ceasefire proposal that Iran proposed includes 10 clauses, in which Tehran rejects a temporary ceasefire, emphasizing “the need to end the war in the long term, while respecting Iran’s interests”.

Along with that, Tehran made a series of additional demands such as ending conflicts in the region, establishing a mechanism to ensure safe traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, rebuilding and lifting sanctions on Iran.

Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump told reporters at the White House that the deadline of 8:00 p.m. Eastern time on April 7 (7:00 a.m. April 8, Hanoi time) he set for Iran to accept the ceasefire agreement and open the Strait of Hormuz was “the final ultimatum.”

He said the ceasefire proposal put forth by the Iranian side was noteworthy, but “not good enough” and did not meet his requirements, but did not elaborate.

“The fighting could end very quickly if Iran does what needs to be done. They have to do certain things. They know that. I think they are negotiating sincerely,” Mr. Trump said at the annual White House event on Easter. The president also expressed his anger at the Iranian government, warning that they “will pay a heavy price.”

Before that, Reuters On April 6, a knowledgeable source said that after overnight meetings between Pakistan Army Commander Asim Munir with US Vice President JD Vance, US special envoy for the Middle East Steve Witkoff and Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi, the parties have formed a framework for an action plan.

The framework includes an immediate ceasefire, followed by negotiations on a broader peace agreement, expected to be completed within 15-20 days, the source said.

Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei later said Tehran had built its stance and demands based on its interests, and passed this content through intermediaries. Details of Iran’s ceasefire proposals will be announced at the appropriate time.

Mr. Baghaei emphasized that Iran’s demands “should not be understood as a sign of concessions, but as a reflection of confidence in its ability to defend its position.” He added that previous US proposals, such as the 15-point plan, were rejected by Tehran as “excessive”.

Iranian army spokesman Mohammad Akraminia today continued to affirm that Tehran’s armed forces will continue the war with Washington and Tel Aviv as long as the country’s political leadership deems necessary.

“The enemy will certainly regret after this war, because we need to achieve a state of security so that we will not witness another war,” Mr. Akraminia told the news agency. ISNA.

The White House on April 6 confirmed that the US is considering a 45-day ceasefire agreement with Iran, but President Trump “has not approved” this proposal and the military campaign continues. US media previously said that Washington had received this ceasefire proposal from intermediaries.
