US offers a plan for a ceasefire but Iran’s military says Washington is in no position to negotiate
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — The United States has sent a 15-point plan to Iran for a possible ceasefire even as it is beginning to move parachute troops to the Mideast to back up a contingent of Marines heading there Wednesday. Iran’s military scoffed at the diplomatic effort and launched more attacks on Israel and the Gulf region, including an assault that sparked a fire at Kuwait International Airport. Iran, which says there are no talks with the U.S., says that Washington is in no position to negotiate. The Israeli military began new wide-scale attacks targeting Iranian government infrastructure, and witnesses reported airstrikes in the northwestern city of Qazvin.
What we know and don’t know about the Iran war negotiations
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — President Donald Trump’s surprising claim this week that talks with Iran were yielding great progress has only raised more confusion over a war whose goals were already unclear. A 15-point plan from the Trump administration offering a potential pathway to an exit has been delivered to Iran through Pakistan, according to a person briefed on the contours of the plan but who was not authorized to speak publicly about it. The most basic question: What talks? Iran denied any negotiations were taking place, pledging to fight “until complete victory.”
