OFFICIAL STATEMENT OF IRAN:
TEHRAN – 7 APRIL 2026
On behalf of the Islamic Republic of Iran, I express gratitude and appreciation for my dear brothers HE Prime Minister of Pakistan Sharif and HE Field Marshal Munir for their tireless efforts to end the war in the region.
In response to the brotherly request of PM Sharif in his tweet, and considering the request by the U.S. for negotiations based on its 15-point proposal as well as announcement by POTUS about acceptance of the [YELLOW HIGHLIGHT: general framework of Iran’s 10-point proposal as a basis for negotiations], I hereby declare on behalf of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council:
If attacks against Iran are halted, our Powerful Armed Forces will cease their defensive operations.
For a period of two weeks, safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz will be possible via coordination with Iran’s Armed Forces and with due consideration of technical limitations.
Seyed Abbas Araghchi
Minister of Foreign Affairs
Islamic Republic of Iran

5) End to all regional fighting against Iranian allies
6) Iran would reopen the Strait of Hormuz
7) Iran would impose a $2m fee per ship transiting Hormuz
8) Iran would split these fees with Oman

CONFIDENTIAL: STRICTLY NOT FOR PUBLICATION
Ipso has asked the Press Association to circulate the following advisory.
Mr Mandelson’s representatives state that he does not wish to speak to the media at this time. He requests that the press do not take photos or film, approach, or contact him via phone, email, or in-person. His representatives ask that any requests for his comment are directed to [REDACTED].
We are happy to make editors aware of his request. We note the terms of Clause 2 (Privacy) and 3 (Harassment) of the Editors’ Code, and in particular that Clause 3 states that journalists must not persist in questioning, telephoning, pursuing or photographing individuals once asked to desist, unless justified in the public interest.
• The above notice was circulated to journalists as paedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein’s friend Peter Mandelson seeks to keep the media and public in the dark.
• We say: He must be held to account.
