In the latest 14-point proposal sent by Iran to the United States, the Islamic nation has called for issues with Washington to be resolved within 30 days and end the 65 days old war instead of extending the ceasefire, according to Iran’s state-linked media.

The proposal is a rebuttal to America’s nine-point plan as President Donald Trump earlier said he was reviewing the offer but expressed doubt it would lead to a deal. In a post on social media, Trump wrote, “They have not yet paid a big enough price for what they have done to Humanity, and the World, over the last 47 years” since the Islamic Revolution there.

The fragile ceasefire, which was agreed between US-Israel and Iran on April 8, is still holding but Trump has rejected an Iranian proposal to end the war last week. This comes as Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi spoke with Oman’s Foreign Minister Badr al-Busaidi, who mediated the US-Iran talks in February before the war broke out in West Asia.

What’s in Iran’s new proposal to end the conflict

  • Resolve issues between Iran and US within 30 days
  • End the war instead of extending the ceasefire
  • US should lift sanctions on Iran, including release of frozen funds
  • US Navy to end Iran’s naval blockade
  • US should withdraw its forces from the region
  • Cease all hostilities, including Israel’s war in Lebanon
  • A pledge of nonaggression, including from Israel
  • Gradual reopening of Strait of Hormuz in first phase
  • Iran to take charge of dealing with the sea mines
  • The proposal, however, rejects dismantling Iran’s nuclear infrastructure
