Iran Reveals Core Content of Ten-Point Plan Submitted to the U.S. via Pakistan

On April 8, the Supreme National Security Council of Iran issued a statement early in the morning, stating that based on the Supreme Leader’s advice and the Council’s approval, it accepted Pakistan’s proposed ceasefire. The statement noted that Iran has achieved nearly all its objectives in this war, and the enemy has suffered a ‘historic and complete defeat.’ Iran will ‘continue to fight until the great achievements it has made are consolidated and a new security and political landscape is established in the region.’ It was also decided to hold negotiations in Islamabad to determine the details, aiming to ‘consolidate the victory results through political negotiations within a maximum of 15 days.’ The statement further indicated that Iran rejected all plans proposed by the enemy and formulated a ten-point plan submitted to the U.S. via Pakistan. This plan emphasizes several key points: coordinating with the Iranian armed forces to control passage through the Strait of Hormuz; ending the war against all members of the ‘Axis of Resistance’ and terminating the aggression of the Israeli regime; the withdrawal of U.S. combat forces from all bases and deployment points in the region; establishing a security transit protocol in the Strait of Hormuz to ensure Iran’s dominance; full compensation for Iran’s losses based on assessments; lifting all first and second-level sanctions as well as relevant UN Security Council resolutions; releasing all Iranian assets and properties frozen overseas; and finally, all these matters should be approved in a binding UN Security Council resolution.
