Iran and
the United States have received a two-tier ceasefire proposal, mediated by
Pakistan, to end over five weeks of hostilities. The deal, tentatively called
the "Islamabad Accord," aims for an immediate cessation of fighting
followed by a permanent settlement.
The
Two-Tier Plan
Tier 1:
Immediate Ceasefire
An
immediate halt to all hostilities.
The
immediate reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, a critical global energy artery
currently blocked.
Tier 2:
Comprehensive Settlement (15–20 Days)
A
15-to-20-day window for intensive negotiations in Islamabad to reach a
permanent peace.
Nuclear
Curbs: Iran would commit to not pursuing nuclear weapons.
Economic
Relief: The U.S. would provide sanctions relief and release frozen Iranian
assets.
Current
Status & Roadblocks
Urgency:
Mediators stress that "all elements need to be agreed today" (Monday,
April 6, 2026) for the plan to take effect immediately.
Iranian
Hesitation: Senior Iranian officials stated they will not accept deadlines and
refuse to reopen the Strait of Hormuz as part of only a "temporary"
ceasefire, seeking permanent security guarantees instead.
U.S.
Pressure: President Donald Trump has threatened "hell" and further
strikes on Iranian infrastructure if the Strait is not reopened by Tuesday.
