Pakistan has received Iran’s response to the United States’ proposal on the Iran war and the response has been sent to the US, a Pakistani government official involved in the talks said on Sunday.

This comes after Iranian state media reported on Sunday that Iran had sent its response to a US proposal to begin peace talks to end the war.
According to Iran’s proposal, the current phase of negotiations will focus exclusively on the cessation of hostilities in the region, a source familiar with the matter told IRNA.
Sources in both camps have told Reuters the latest peace efforts are aimed at a temporary memorandum of understanding to halt the war and allow traffic through the Strait of Hormuz while they discuss a fuller deal, which would have to address intractable disputes such as Iran’s nuclear programme.
