Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei revealed that the United States has acknowledged Iran’s 14-point proposal aimed at terminating the ongoing conflict. Baghaei mentioned that the US response is currently under evaluation. He emphasized that Iran’s plan is solely focused on resolving the war and does not involve specifics regarding the nuclear domain.
Baghaei highlighted that the current focus lies on the parameters necessary for ending the regional conflict, including Lebanon. He clarified that there are no ongoing nuclear negotiations at this stage. The Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman reiterated that nuclear discussions are not part of the current agenda, a significant requirement from the US.
Iran has consistently refuted claims of pursuing nuclear weapons, asserting that its nuclear activities are strictly for peaceful purposes. Despite this, Iran stands as the sole non-nuclear-armed nation with uranium enrichment approaching weapons-grade levels.
Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi updated his Omani and German counterparts on Iran’s recent diplomatic endeavors and strategies to bring an end to the conflict. Araghchi engaged in separate discussions with Omani Foreign Minister Sayyid Badr bin Hamad bin Hamood Albusaidi and German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul, exchanging insights on the latest global and regional developments.
Following joint military strikes by Israel and the US on Tehran and other Iranian cities on February 28, resulting in casualties including Iran’s then-Supreme Leader and senior commanders, Iran retaliated with missile and drone attacks targeting Israel and US interests. A ceasefire was implemented on April 8, leading to negotiations between Iranian and US representatives in Islamabad, which failed to yield an agreement.
