ISLAMABAD – A US news agency has reported that American proposals for negotiations with Iran include the dismantling of the country’s nuclear and missile programs. The 15-point plan, delivered to Tehran via two Pakistani and one Egyptian official, also suggests easing certain sanctions and reopening the strategic Strait of Hormuz.
The proposed plan reportedly involves monitoring Iran’s nuclear activities under the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and establishing civilian nuclear cooperation between Tehran and Washington. Additionally, the plan includes measures to prevent Iranian support for armed groups in the region.
