Tehran, Iran has outlined a new diplomatic proposal aimed at ending its ongoing confrontation with the United States and Israel, as senior officials briefed foreign envoys in Tehran on Saturday, signalling a renewed push for negotiations while maintaining a firm security posture.
Deputy Foreign Minister for Legal and International Affairs Kazem Gharibabadi met ambassadors and representatives from several countries to explain Tehran\u2019s latest initiative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to Iranian officials, the proposal has been conveyed through Pakistan, which is acting as a mediator in indirect talks between Tehran and Washington.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
During the briefing, Gharibabadi emphasised that Iran continues to prioritise diplomacy grounded in national interests, but remains fully prepared to respond decisively to any military escalation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He indicated that the proposal is intended to bring a \u201cpermanent end\u201d to what Iran describes as imposed hostilities, while placing the onus on the United States to choose between dialogue and continued confrontation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Iran\u2019s position reflects a dual-track approach, keeping diplomatic channels open while underscoring its readiness to defend its sovereignty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Officials reiterated longstanding mistrust of Washington, citing past breakdowns in negotiations and what Tehran views as inconsistent commitments during earlier diplomatic engagements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The latest move follows a brief ceasefire announced on April 7, which temporarily reduced hostilities between Iran and US-backed forces in the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Subsequently, indirect talks were held in Islamabad on April 11 under Pakistan\u2019s facilitation, though those discussions ended without a breakthrough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Diplomatic activity has since intensified. Earlier this week, envoys from China and Russia met with Iranian officials to discuss the updated proposal, signaling broader international interest in de-escalation efforts. Both countries have previously called for restraint and a negotiated resolution to rising tensions in West Asia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While details of the proposal have not been made public, analysts suggest it may include security assurances, phased de-escalation measures, and mechanisms to prevent further military incidents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, significant gaps remain between the parties, particularly on regional influence, sanctions, and security guarantees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The coming days are expected to be crucial in determining whether the proposal gains traction or whether the current fragile calm gives way to renewed tensions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
