Pakistan’s army chief held separate calls with J.D. Vance, U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff and Iran’s Abbas Araghchi, according to a source familiar with the proposals. A two-tier plan has been presented to both the U.S. and Iran, calling for an immediate ceasefire followed by a final agreement. The proposal includes Iran forgoing nuclear weapons in exchange for sanctions relief and the release of frozen assets. The plan, which needs to be agreed on Monday, would reopen the Strait of Hormuz and lead to a comprehensive deal within 15–20 days if accepted.
