Amid stalled negotiations between Iran and the United States, Tehran said on Monday it had again sent new proposals to Washington.
Foreign Ministry spokesman Ismail Baghai told reporters that Iran had conveyed its positions on Sunday via mediators in Pakistan. Nothing is yet known about the specifics of the proposals.
On Sunday in Washington, US President Donald Trump again took to his Truth Social platform to threaten Iran with destruction, writing "the Clock is Ticking, and they better get moving, FAST, or there won't be anything left of them."
Baghai also said that the United States had previously submitted responses to Iran's earlier proposal. Trump had publicly dismissed this as "totally unacceptable."
On Sunday, the Iranian news agency Fars reported on the latest US proposal. It made clear that the two warring parties have so far not significantly backed away from their demands.
The US was also reported to have again made clear that it would only halt the fighting long-term if there are certain negotiating results.
For Iran, halting the fighting, in particular Israel's offensive in Lebanon, is a precondition for further negotiations.
The parties are also far apart mainly on issues surrounding Iran's nuclear programme. According to Fars, the latest US proposal includes the demand that Iran must hand over 400 kilograms of highly enriched uranium to the US.
However, the country could continue to operate a nuclear facility. Iran currently does not want to negotiate over its nuclear programme.
The information in the Fars report could not be independently verified.
