US President Donald Trump said on Saturday that he was reviewing a new Iranian proposal to end the war. "I'll let you know about it later," he said before boarding Air Force One, adding that "they're going to give me the exact wording now". Two semi-official Iranian outlets, Tasnim and Fars, believed to be close to Iran's paramilitary Revolutionary Guard, said Iran has sent a 14-point proposal via Pakistan in response to a nine-point US proposal. Trump rejected a previous Iranian proposal this week. However, conversations have continued, and the three-week ceasefire appears to be holding. The US president also has floated a new plan to reopen the Strait of Hormuz at the mouth of the Persian Gulf, where about a fifth of the world's trade in oil and natural gas typically passes. The US has warned shipping companies they could face sanctions for paying Iran to pass safely through the Strait of Hormuz, adding pressure in the stand-off over control of it.
