President Trump would still have to sign off on the proposal as the White House blasted early reports of a deal on Wednesday as \u201cpropaganda.\u201d The tentative agreement would extend the cease-fire, which Iran violated on Thursday by firing toward a US military base in Kuwait, according to US Central Command.<\/p>\n

The agreement would see the US drop its blockade on Iranian ports in exchange for a return to \u201cunrestricted\u201d shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, according to the White House. It would also begin a 60-day period for the US and Iran to begin negotiating on Tehran\u2019s nuclear issues.<\/p>\n

Iran would be banned from seeking a toll from ships transiting the oil chokepoint and would be required to de-mine the waterway within 30 days.<\/p>\n

The US would also commit to discuss lifting sanctions and unfreezing Iranian funds during the talks, which would come with an Iranian pledge to talk about destroying its highly enriched uranium and addressing future enrichment.<\/p>\n

An Iranian source told The Post it is the same agreement, in principle, as the one leaked to Iranian media on Thursday \u2014 that the White House\u2019s Rapid Response 47 X account said was a \u201ccomplete fabrication.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

That agreement held that the US would\u00a0withdraw all its forces from around Iran\u00a0and drop its naval blockade of Iranian ports in exchange for Tehran reopening the Strait of Hormuz and restoring\u00a0non-military\u00a0traffic to pre-war levels in 30 days.<\/p>\n

It further alleged Washington had agreed to allow Iran and neighboring Oman to control the strait after it reopened \u2014 a claim contrary to repeatedly stated US and global demands that the passage be considered an international waterway owned by no nation.<\/p>\n
