  • Axios: Tehran proposal via Pakistan aims to end blockade, reopen Hormuz

Contesto

Iran has proposed a new deal to the United States aimed at reopening the strategic Strait of Hormuz and ending the current blockade of its ports, according to a report by Axios published on Tuesday. The offer, which postpones nuclear negotiations for a later stage, was conveyed through Pakistani mediators, the report said, citing unnamed U.S. and regional sources. The proposal arrives amid heightened tensions in the Persian Gulf, where the Strait of Hormuz—a chokepoint for about one-fifth of the world's oil supply—has been effectively closed since late last year following a series of tit-for-tat maritime incidents. The U.S. blockade of Iranian ports, imposed as part of a campaign of maximum economic pressure, has crippled Tehran's oil exports and deepened the country's economic crisis. According to the Axios report, the Iranian initiative focuses exclusively on maritime access and trade routes, deliberately setting aside the more contentious issue of Tehran's nuclear program. The report quoted sources suggesting that if the United States agrees to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and lift the blockade on Iranian ports, President Donald Trump would be left “with no real leverage to get Tehran to give up on its stockpile of enriched uranium, and commit to a suspension of uranium enrichment for at least a decade.” The use of Pakistan as an intermediary is notable, analysts say, as Islamabad maintains diplomatic ties with both Washington and Tehran. Pakistan has previously offered to mediate between Iran and Saudi Arabia, and its involvement in this channel signals a potential shift in regional diplomacy. However, there has been no official confirmation from either the Pakistani government or the U.S. State Department regarding the reported proposal. The timing of the offer is critical. Iran has steadily advanced its uranium enrichment program since the United States withdrew from the 2015 nuclear deal in 2018, and the International Atomic Energy Agency has reported that Tehran now possesses enough fissile material for several nuclear weapons, should it choose to weaponize. By decoupling the Hormuz issue from nuclear talks, Iran may be seeking to ease economic pressure...
