The United States reportedly sent a 15-point plan to Iran.
The plan would end the war.
It addresses both Iran’s ballistic missile and nuclear programs.
The Trump administration has reportedly sent Iran a 15-point plan to end the war in the Middle East.
The peace plan was shared with Iranian officials Tuesday via Pakistan, according to the New York Times.
Sources told the outlet that the proposal addresses Iran’s ballistic missile and nuclear programs.
President Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff and son-in-law Jared Kushner are reportedly seeking Tehran to agree to a monthlong cease-fire, during which the 15 points of the plan would be negotiated, according to Israel’s Channel 12.
Trump had previously told reporters that there were “like” 15 points of agreement between the United States and Iran.
He also revealed that JD Vance and Marco Rubio are involved in the negotiations.
Later Tuesday, The New York Times, citing two unnamed officials, reported that the U.S. has sent Iran a 15-point plan to end the war.
It was unclear how widely the plan — delivered through Pakistan — has been circulated among Iranian officials, the Times reported. It was also unclear if Israel, which is attacking Iran alongside the U.S., would support the plan, according to the newspaper.
A day earlier, Trump told reporters that there were “like 15” points of agreement between the U.S. and Iran. Keeping Iran from getting a nuclear weapon was “No. 1, 2 and 3″ on that list, he said.
Trump, in the Oval Office on Tuesday, said that multiple U.S. officials are involved in the negotiations, name-checking Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
The United States is waiting for a response from Tehran.
US officials say that the Iranian government is in chaos.
The U.S. and a group of regional mediators are discussing the possibility of holding high-level peace talks with Iran as soon as Thursday, but they’re still waiting for a response from Tehran, two sources with knowledge of the discussions tell Axios.

Between the lines: U.S. officials say the Iranian government is in chaos and is having trouble communicating within itself. The uncertain condition of the new supreme leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, adds to confusion about who is empowered to make decisions.
Some Iranian officials, meanwhile, claim Trump is just trying to calm the markets and buy time for his military plans with false claims of diplomatic progress.
The U.S. is also readying options for potential escalation. A U.S. official told Axios the command element of the U.S. Army’s 82nd Airborne division had been directed to deploy to the Middle East with an infantry brigade consisting of several thousand soldiers, as Fox News first reported.
