As diplomatic tensions between Tehran and Washington reach a boiling point in 2026, recent reports indicate that the Islamic Republic of Iran is drafting a “New Proposal” to resolve the nuclear crisis. This diplomatic move comes just as U.S. President Donald Trump intensifies his rhetoric, warning of potential limited military strikes.
Trump’s Ultimatum and the Military Option
In his latest remarks from the White House, Donald Trump set a 10-to-15-day deadline for Iran to reach what he describes as a “fair” new deal. He explicitly stated that if no result is achieved, “very bad things” will happen. When questioned about the possibility of limited military strikes to pressure Tehran, Trump replied:
“I think I could say I’m looking at it.”
Reports suggest that U.S. military planning against Iranian targets has reached advanced stages. These options range from targeting specific individuals to pursuing regime change if directly ordered by the President. This bellicose atmosphere has doubled concerns over a widespread conflict in the Middle East.
Tehran’s Diplomatic Response: A New Offer on the Way
On the other side, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi told international media that Tehran is working on a new proposal. According to Araghchi, the draft will be submitted to high-ranking officials for final review within the next two to three days. Araghchi emphasized that Iran is ready to negotiate based on “mutual respect,” but warned that any military action would severely complicate and halt diplomatic efforts.
Background: From Facility Bombings to Internal Unrest
This new stalemate follows the June 2025 airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities. While the Pentagon claims those strikes set Iran’s nuclear program back by one to two years, other intelligence reports suggest the impact lasted only a few months, as a large portion of enriched uranium stockpiles had been moved to secret locations prior to the attacks.
Beyond the nuclear issue, international pressure on Iran regarding internal matters and human rights has also increased. Trump claims his threats forced Tehran to pull back from certain mass executions a claim Iranian officials dismiss as part of Washington’s “psychological warfare.”
The Future of Negotiations: Table or Battlefield?
The ball is now in diplomacy’s court. Iran’s new proposal, set to be presented in the coming days, will determine if the two nations can find an exit ramp from this crisis. Given the massive U.S. naval presence in the region and Iran’s firm stance on its “red lines” including the right to enrichment the coming days will be critical for international security.
Will Trump settle for a minimal agreement, or will the Middle East witness the spark of a new war? The answer lies in the details of the plan Araghchi is about to put on the table.
