LONDON, April 06 (Alliance News):Pakistan has presented a comprehensive two-phase plan to the United States and Iran aimed at ending the ongoing conflict, according to a British news agency.
The proposal, reportedly named the “Islamabad Accord,” envisions an immediate ceasefire followed by negotiations for a permanent settlement.
Under the plan, the Strait of Hormuz would be reopened alongside the immediate ceasefire. Pakistan is reportedly serving as the sole communication channel, with military leaders maintaining regular contact with US Vice President JD Vance and Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi.
A 45-day temporary ceasefire is under consideration, with the possibility of extension if negotiations require more time.
The American magazine Exos, citing US, Israeli, and regional sources, confirmed that mediators are discussing a two-phase agreement, with the first phase aimed at stabilizing the situation and the second phase focused on a permanent resolution.
While the White House and US State Department have not commented, officials note that a partial agreement in the next 48 hours is unlikely, though this initiative represents a crucial chance to prevent further escalation.
Earlier reports by the Wall Street Journal highlighted that Pakistan, Egypt, and Turkey have been actively mediating, seeking to persuade Iran to engage in negotiations, although no breakthrough has yet been achieved.
The Islamabad Accord marks a significant diplomatic step, reflecting Pakistan’s role in regional peace efforts and its strategic positioning as a mediator between global powers amid rising tensions in the Middle East.
