Pakistan drafted a two‑stage ceasefire framework for Iran and the United States, potentially effective as early as Monday.
The plan calls for an immediate ceasefire, reopening the Strait of Hormuz, followed by 15‑20 days to negotiate a comprehensive settlement.
Pakistan’s army chief Asim Munir liaised with US Vice President JD Vance, envoy Steve Witkoff and Iran’s foreign minister Abbas Araqchi.
Iran has not yet responded, despite backing from Pakistan, China and the US, leaving the proposal’s implementation uncertain.
