What is the core content of Trump's one-page proposal to Iran, and what does it aim to achieve?

Trump's one-page proposal, sent on Wednesday, asks Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and the US to end its blockade on Iranian ports over the next month; its acceptance would end the 10-week war that has killed thousands and driven up energy prices, though nuclear negotiations would still be needed.

How did Iran respond to the US proposal and the recent US airstrikes on Iranian tankers?

Iran stated its response is 'under review' with no timeline given, while condemning the US airstrikes on two empty Iranian oil tankers as a violation of the ceasefire and accusing the US of confusion and failing to find a reasonable solution to its 'self-created impasse.'
