Iran's Press TV quoted an unnamed official as saying Tehran rejected the U.S. 15-point proposal that Pakistan had passed on, and set out five conditions: an end to killings of its officials, guarantees against another war, reparations, an end to hostilities and Iranian sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz. The White House said Trump was prepared to 'unleash hell' if Iran did not accept it had been defeated, while insisting talks had not hit a dead end.

Why it matters

Tehran's demand for sovereignty over Hormuz and war reparations goes to the core of what Washington wants from any deal, leaving the talks without an obvious basis.
