  1. Iran Issues Two-Day Ultimatum to US Over Nuclear Proposal

    Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi warned Sunday that Washington has two days to accept Tehran's latest nuclear proposal or face severe consequences. The offer was transmitted via Qatar, according to a senior Iranian official cited by Reuters. New York Times sources confirm Iran is reviewing concrete proposals on its nuclear program. Araghchi stated no negotiations have occurred since the shock of the US midterm elections. The Guardian reports a Qatari-mediated plan could include reopening the Strait of Hormuz as part of nuclear inspection arrangements.

    Why it matters

    The ultimatum follows weeks of escalating rhetoric between Tehran and Washington after President Trump renewed threats of military action against Iranian nuclear facilities. Qatar has emerged as a key mediator, shuttling proposals between the two sides. Iran's demand for a rapid US response reflects its calculation that the current US political climate may favor a diplomatic off-ramp, while simultaneously signaling readiness for conflict if talks collapse.
