The diplomatic standoff in the Middle East has entered a phase of discussions about specific economic and political conditions that could form the basis for ending the large-scale conflict. Iranian state media have published details of an ambitious ten-point peace plan, which Tehran claims has already been accepted by the Donald Trump administration as a basis for initiating de-escalation. The central element of this proposal is securing Iran's exclusive control over shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. According to preliminary estimates by Iranian television, the introduction of special fees for the passage of commercial vessels could generate a colossal annual revenue of approximately $64 billion for the country's budget. This financial leverage is intended to become the foundation for economic stabilization in the country after years of sanctions pressure.

Tehran's proposed plan includes radical demands on the United States and its regional allies. The document calls not only for a complete cessation of all acts of aggression against Iran and resistance groups loyal to it, but also for the final withdrawal of American combat forces from Middle Eastern bases. Iran insists on a ban on the use of regional infrastructure for attacks against its territory, demanding that Washington formally renounce its military readiness. The plan places particular emphasis on the financial aspect: in addition to the lifting of all primary, secondary, and international sanctions, Iran demands the creation of a special investment fund to compensate for damage to infrastructure.

In exchange for fulfilling these conditions, Tehran expresses its willingness to assume a number of strategic obligations. Specifically, the plan affirms Iran's renunciation of nuclear weapons, contingent on the United States' formal recognition of the country's right to enrich uranium and transparent negotiations on the levels of this process. Furthermore, Iran declares its intention to enter into multilateral peace talks with neighboring countries in the region, based on the principles of mutual non-aggression and respect for national interests. However, experts note that extending the non-aggression principle to all resistance groups allied with Tehran could become a serious stumbling block for the US administration. Nevertheless, the very existence of such a document and the announcement of its preliminary approval by the White House offer hope that the conflict will transition from a heated phase to protracted, but legal, negotiations.
