"The United States has sent Iran a 15-point plan to end the war, delivered through Pakistan. Fourteen of its points are now public. Iran’s military called it fiction. Iran’s diplomats are, very quietly, reading it.

The plan was confirmed Tuesday by the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg, Haaretz, and ABC News."

The Rest of the World Report | Wednesday, March 25, 2026 — Morning Edition

The US sent Iran a 15-point peace plan. Most of it is what Iran already agreed to before the war started. ① The 15-point plan is public. Its nuclear core maps closely onto what Iran had already agreed to in Oman — one day before the US attacked. Iran's military says it will never deal with Washington. Iran's diplomats are quietly reading the plan. Israel is not part of the talks and is still striking. ② Iran formally told the IMO that "non-hostile" ships can transit Hormuz — in coordination with Iranian authorities. One Thai tanker made it through. Five vessels are transiting daily. The pre-war average was 120. Insurance companies are still not covering the route. ③ The US killed the PMF's Anbar operations commander during a security meeting in Iraq. Iraq's National Security Council has formally authorized the PMF to retaliate "with all available means." Iraq is being struck by both the US and Iran, has no sitting government, and is formally protesting both sides simultaneously. ④ Russia launched nearly 1,000 drones at Ukraine in 24 hours — one of the largest attacks of the war. A UNESCO World Heritage Site in Lviv caught fire. A maternity hospital was struck. Ukraine hit Russia's biggest Baltic oil port in response. Zelenskyy said plainly: Russia is helping Iran carry out strikes, and Ukraine is running short of missiles because Washington is focused elsewhere. ⑤ Iran's military rejected the 15-point plan in the sharpest terms possible. Iran's counter-demands include reparations, full sanctions relief, and legal guarantees against future US interference. The person whose decision actually matters — Mojtaba Khamenei — has said nothing publicly since the war began. ⑥ French authorities raided the Paris offices of Swiss private bank Edmond de Rothschild in connection with the Epstein case. The accountability proceedings are happening in Europe. The story is almost entirely absent from American coverage this week. The rest of the world is watching. We translate it for you.

"Israel is not signed onto the plan. ...

Most of what the plan asks on nuclear questions is what Iran had already agreed to before the US attacked it."

Approximately 1,000 US soldiers preparing to deploy to the Middle East to be available for Iran operations

Approximately 1,000 US soldiers with the Army’s 82nd Airborne Division are expecting to deploy in coming days to the Middle East, according to two sources familiar with the matter, adding to the growing military firepower in the region as the Trump administration says it is in talks with Iran to end the conflict.

"The buildup comes amid low domestic support for the war, with a majority of Americans opposing U.S. strikes despite ongoing military activity."

Major Update: Jack Smith Found Bombshell Evidence Against Trump, Republicans Concerned Following Stunning Democrat Victories, Iran Mocks the United States

Good morning everyone.

The Parnas Perspective

"Trump’s description of peace negotiations is exaggerated. The US has sent a 15-point peace proposal to Iran—an unusual opener for the country that claims to have 'won' the war."

"Netanyahu wanted this war. Rubio wanted this war. The Israel-right-or-wrong brigade — the AIPAC apparatus, the Lindsey Grahams, the entire infrastructure of American political life that has treated the unconditional defense of whatever the Israeli government does as the price of admission to serious foreign policy discussion — they wanted this war. ...

They got their war."

"Trump made Israel’s problem America’s problem. ...

Israel had actively lobbied for US military action against Iran for decades, claiming Iran posed an existential threat to Israel, but other presidents could not be persuaded."

The Haake Take

"Presidents Bush and Obama routinely rejected Israel’s requests because they wanted to avoid another unpredictable Middle Eastern conflict that would exacerbate regional destabilization and bring high U.S. casualties."

“'I’m not going to start a war,' President Trump pledged during his November 2024 victory speech. 'I’m going to stop wars.'

Today, the United States has been at war with Iran for almost a month, with no clear objectives and no end in sight. Why is Trump, who promised to avoid foreign entanglements, allowing it to drag on?"

"On Tuesday, the New York Times published a bombshell report. Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS) has been aggressively lobbying Trump not to end the fighting. ...

Oddly, the New York Times story does not mention that Trump’s chief negotiator, his son-in-law Jared Kushner, is being paid tens of millions annually by the Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF), which is controlled by MBS.
