[65379] Diplomatic efforts mediated by Pakistan: Iran has submitted a revised proposal to the US to end the war

Significant development in talks between Tehran and Washington

Throughout the day (May 18, 2026), it was reported by many media outlets based on the 'Reuters' news agency that Pakistan had passed an updated and revised Iranian proposal to the United States aimed at ending the war. A Pakistani source quoted by Nitzan Shapira emphasized the importance of time, noting: "We do not have much time."

The reports, published simultaneously by Kol HaHadashot, Dafna Liel, and ynet, indicate that the dialogue mediated by Pakistan is continuing actively. According to ynet, Iran confirmed that both sides have submitted comments on the proposal on the table.

In the US political arena, former President Donald Trump addressed the reports and estimated that "the Iranians are dying to sign a deal," as published by Zirat HaHadashot.

It is worth noting that while most sources present the move as a substantive diplomatic development, Aslan's Channel, which is identified with a more critical position regarding the US administration, preferred to highlight the report without excessive commentary, while maintaining a position that presents the conduct of those involved in a critical light.
