The Wall Street Journal reports Monday evening that mediators have presented additional proposals to the United States and Iran, alongside the 10-day ceasefire plan reported earlier Monday. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has not responded to these proposals, according to the report. The development comes as the status of the initial ceasefire proposal remains unclear.
Earlier Monday at 14:32 Jerusalem, i24NEWS (citing Reuters) reported that mediators had proposed a 10-day ceasefire between the US and Iran. Separately, a senior Iranian official told Reuters that the proposal was for a 10-day halt to attacks to revive the interim agreement. That report, also published at 14:32 Jerusalem, noted the proposal's status and acceptance by either side were unclear. The thread follows the White House's rejection of a separate Qatari ceasefire proposal on Sunday evening at 20:31 Jerusalem, which The Zioneer reported as insufficient.
As The Zioneer previously reported, the IRGC has threatened to halt all negotiations (June 28) and its affiliated Fars News Agency has cast doubt on any final deal being reached on President Trump's timeline (June 14). The White House's rejection of the Qatari proposal on Sunday underscored the distance between the parties.
It remains unclear whether the additional proposals reported by the WSJ are separate offers or part of a broader negotiating framework. The IRGC's position on them is unknown, and the initial 10-day ceasefire proposal remains unresolved.
