Iran Says Reviewing U.S. Respond to 14-Point Peace Plan
(MENAFN) Iran is actively reviewing a formal response from the United States to Tehran's 14-point plan aimed at ending the ongoing regional war, the country's Foreign Ministry spokesman disclosed Sunday — signaling a fragile but active diplomatic channel between the two adversaries.
Esmaeil Baghaei, speaking in an interview with a state-run broadcaster, confirmed Washington had replied to Iran's proposal while making clear that nuclear issues play no role in the current framework. He stressed that Iran's plan is exclusively focused on ending the war, and "nothing pertaining to the nuclear field's details exists in it."
"At present, we are focused on the parameters related to ending the war in the region, including Lebanon," Baghaei added, stressing "we have no nuclear negotiation at this stage."
In a parallel diplomatic push on the same day, Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi held separate phone calls with Omani Foreign Minister Sayyid Badr bin Hamad bin Hamood Albusaidi and German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul, briefing both counterparts on Tehran's latest initiatives and diplomatic efforts to bring the conflict to a close, according to statements issued by the Iranian Foreign Ministry.
The flurry of diplomatic activity unfolds against a backdrop of devastating escalation. On Feb. 28, Israel and the United States launched coordinated strikes on Tehran and other Iranian cities, killing then-Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, senior military commanders, and civilians. Iran retaliated with successive waves of missile and drone attacks directed at Israeli targets and U.S. interests across the region.
A ceasefire came into effect on April 8, paving the way for Iranian and U.S. delegations to convene in Islamabad — talks that ultimately collapsed without a deal, leaving the diplomatic path forward deeply uncertain.
