Expert casts doubt on US-Iran peace prospects as Tehran presents new proposalđ¨
The chances of a breakthrough between the US and Iran are slim unless Washington shifts its stance on the war, an expert said after reports emerged of a new Iranian proposal to end the conflict.
âThe two sides are presenting very maximalist positions, and I donât think that there will be a breakthrough right now unless the US will change its mind,â Danny Citrinowicz, from Israelâs Institute of National Security Studies, told CNNâs Becky Anderson.
Iranâs proposal would reopen the Strait of Hormuz but leave the state of talks on key US demands unclear.
âI have serious doubts the US will accept this offer, because then the US will lose leverage on the nuclear file,â he said.
