Tehran: Iran has outlined an extensive set of conditions in response to a reported 45-day proposal from the United States, calling for a permanent end to ongoing conflicts not only within Iran but also across Lebanon and Gaza, according to state affiliated media reports.

Citing Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA), the proposal includes demands for binding guarantees to prevent any future resumption of hostilities. Iran has also called for international recognition of its control over the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz, including the authority to impose tolls on vessels transiting the waterway.

Among the key conditions, Tehran is seeking the full removal of all economic sanctions, alongside formal acknowledgment of its right to enrich uranium under the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT). Additionally, Iran has demanded reparations for economic losses incurred during the conflict.

The reported response highlights a significant gap between the two sides, with Iran framing its terms as a comprehensive peace settlement, while U.S officials had initially proposed a shorter term framework. There has been no immediate official reaction from Washington regarding the latest developments.
