Iran has offered the United States a seven-day plan to end the nearly seven-month war in West Asia, with Tehran proposing that the Strait of Hormuz be reopened by the end of the seventh day if certain conditions are met, The New York Times reported.Under the proposal, Iran would reopen the strategic waterway and the US and Iran would restart comprehensive negotiations over Tehran’s nuclear programme. Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi said the proposal had been conveyed to Washington through intermediaries and was similar to a memorandum of understanding reached by the two sides in June.“We have introduced a plan to the United States through the intermediators that if certain conditions are met, the Strait of Hormuz would be open on the end of the seventh day and talks would restart...it would be better, if a deal was reached before the U.S.
