Iran proposes seven-day ceasefire plan to reopen Strait of Hormuz and revive nuclear talks

Iran’s foreign minister says the shipping route could reopen within a week under the proposal.

Iran offered the United States a seven-day plan on Sept. 24 to end the war. The New York Times reports that the offer includes resuming negotiations over Iran’s nuclear program; the supplied reports describe a proposal, not an agreement.

  • Aug. 4 — Talks in Muscat collapsed after Tehran refused inspections.
  • Jul. 28 — Iran fired ballistic missiles at a U.S. base in Jordan; all were intercepted.
  • Jul. 23 — Trump threatened to bomb Iranian bridges for every ship hit in the Strait of Hormuz.
