• US President Donald Trump announced on May 7, 2026, that negotiations with Iran have progressed significantly in the last 24 hours, predicting a quick deal to formally end the ongoing war. • The US peace proposal, under review by Tehran, calls for a one-page memorandum to halt hostilities, reopen the Strait of Hormuz, ease sanctions, and limit Iran's nuclear activities, though it omits missile program curbs and proxy support restrictions. • Iranian officials responded cautiously, with a foreign ministry spokesperson pledging an official reply and lawmaker Ebrahim Rezaei calling the offer unrealistic and US-biased; Trump paused a naval mission to reopen shipping lanes amid Saudi opposition.
