Iran offers via Pakistan to reopen Hormuz if US lifts blockade, deferring nuclear talks

Iran passed the US a proposal through Pakistani mediators to end the war and reopen the Strait of Hormuz in exchange for an end to the US blockade, leaving nuclear negotiations for a later stage, Axios first reported and two regional officials confirmed to AP. The White House said Trump's national security team discussed it but that his red lines were 'very, very clear', and Rubio said Iran's idea of an open strait, with permission and payment required, was not acceptable.
