Iran has officially rejected a Pakistan-brokered ceasefire proposal and instead delivered a defiant 10-point counteroffer outlining sweeping demands to end the war.
Iran transmitted its response to the United States through Pakistani intermediaries, dismissing calls for a temporary truce and insisting instead on a “permanent end to the war” on its own terms.
Pakistan has brokered a last-minute ceasefire framework dubbed the “Islamabad Accord” to prevent the total annihilation of the Iranian terror state.
According to Reuters, citing two sources familiar with the matter, both Washington and Tehran have now received the proposal, which calls for an immediate ceasefire, reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, and a short window to hammer out a permanent settlement.
Pakistan’s army chief, Field Marshal Asim Munir, has reportedly been in round-the-clock meetings with US Vice President JD Vance, special envoy Steve Witkoff, and Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi.
The proposed agreement follows a two-phase structure:
Phase 1: Immediate ceasefire and reopening of the Strait of Hormuz
Phase 2: 15–20 days of negotiations toward a broader peace deal
But the terror regime flat-out rejected the idea.
According to Reuters, Iranian officials outlined a 10-point counterproposal that includes:
A full and permanent end to hostilities
Lifting of economic sanctions crippling Iran’s economy
Establishing a new security framework in the region
Guarantees for safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz
Reconstruction commitments following the conflict
Meanwhile, U.S. leadership has already indicated that Iran’s counteroffer falls far short of expectations.
Reports indicate that Iran also rejected key U.S. demands, including curbs on its nuclear program and missile capabilities, calling them “excessive” and refusing to comply, the New York Post reported.
It can be recalled that President Donald Trump took to Truth Social on Saturday to deliver a final, bone-chilling warning to the radical mullahs in Tehran: Open the Strait of Hormuz now, or face total annihilation.
“Remember when I gave Iran ten days to MAKE A DEAL or OPEN UP THE HORMUZ STRAIT. Time is running out – 48 hours before all Hell will reign down on them. Glory be to GOD!” Trump wrote.
In a series of Truth Social posts this Easter Sunday, the Commander-in-Chief set a definitive drop-dead deadline for the Islamic Republic to cease its hostilities or face a military response.
Trump wrote:
“Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!! Open the Fuckin’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell – JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah. President DONALD J. TRUMP”
In a follow-up post, Trump wrote: “Tuesday, 8:00 P.M. Eastern Time!”
