White House Reviewing Iran Peace Proposal on Hormuz

White House confirms review of Iran’s proposal to halt conflict and reopen the Strait of Hormuz, while maintaining U.S. red lines.

The White House has confirmed that the national security team of Donald Trump is reviewing a peace proposal from Iran aimed at halting the conflict and reopening the Strait of Hormuz.

According to officials, the proposal also includes delaying negotiations over Iran’s nuclear program as part of a broader effort to reduce tensions and stabilize the region.

Karoline Leavitt said in a recent briefing that while the proposal is under review, Washington’s “red lines remain unchanged,” signaling continued caution in the negotiations process.

Officials noted that the review is being conducted by Trump’s national security team rather than the formal National Security Council, a distinction seen as significant given the council’s legal structure and fixed membership.

The development follows a report by Axios that Iran had presented a new proposal through Pakistani mediators, seeking a framework to resume talks and de-escalate tensions with the United States.

Tensions between Iran and the United States have escalated in recent months, with military confrontations and threats to shipping routes raising concerns about global energy security.

The Strait of Hormuz, a key passage for global oil supplies, has remained a central point of concern, with any disruption likely to have significant economic consequences worldwide.

Pakistan has played an increasing role as a mediator, facilitating indirect communication between Tehran and Washington amid strained diplomatic relations.

Despite diplomatic efforts, major differences remain over Iran’s nuclear program and regional influence, with both sides signaling willingness to talk but maintaining firm negotiating positions.
