Iran Submitted Two 10-point Plans — One “Unserious” and Another “Workable”: White House

The White House has disclosed that Iran submitted two separate 10-point plans, with one being deemed “unserious and unacceptable” and subsequently rejected by President Donald Trump. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt stated that the other plan was considered “workable,” leading to a mutual agreement for a two-week ceasefire and the resumption of negotiations. Leavitt emphasized that certain media portrayals misrepresented the discarded plan as being accepted by the United States.

“Iran initially presented a 10-point plan that failed to meet our standards and was wholly dismissed. It was essentially thrown away by the President and his negotiation team,” Leavitt remarked. She insisted that there had been significant inaccuracies in reports suggesting otherwise. “The Iranian proposition that has potential for further discussion aligns more closely with our own 15-point outline and includes critical stipulations for negotiations,” she added.

Leavitt reiterated that Trump’s uncompromising demands regarding uranium enrichment in Iran remain intact. “President Trump has consistently stated that any agreement must prioritize the best interests of the United States,” she explained. Furthermore, the President has underscored the importance of maintaining an open Strait of Hormuz, vital for oil shipping, during these discussions, which are expected to occur discreetly over the next fortnight.

Earlier, President Trump indicated intentions to press for a complete halt to uranium enrichment in Iran while initiating talks on the lifting of sanctions and reductions in tariffs. The President referred to the recently negotiated ceasefire as the beginning of a “highly productive regime change” within the Iranian government.

Sharing updates on his social media platform, Trump expressed readiness to “collaborate closely with Iran” as the two nations navigate recent conflict. He asserted that groundwork for a wider international agreement has effectively been laid. Trump’s remarks directly addressed nuclear concerns, affirming that there would be no uranium enrichment going forward and insisting that the US would collaborate with Iran to dismantle any remnants of its nuclear program.

Upcoming diplomatic discussions between the US and Iran are scheduled to take place in Islamabad this weekend, aimed at resolving prolonged conflicts that have emerged in the region. This follows the recent declaration of a mutual ceasefire lasting two weeks after intensive confrontations.

A US delegation, led by Vice President JD Vance, is set to engage in talks with an Iranian delegation headed by Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf. This meeting follows Trump’s decision to halt military actions against Iran, introducing a two-week ceasefire while acknowledging the Iranian proposal as a potentially workable avenue for negotiations.
