White House: 10-Point Ceasefire Plan Announced by Iran Is Not the One Agreed with the US

A United States (US) official stated that the 10-point ceasefire plan issued by Iran is not the same set of conditions agreed upon by the White House to temporarily stop the war.

“The document reported by the media is not the applicable framework,” the senior official said on condition of anonymity, as reported by AFP on Thursday (9/4/2026).

The official provided no further comment, stating, “We will not negotiate in public as a sign of respect for the process.”

This statement adds to concerns over the fragility of the ceasefire announced on Tuesday (7/4) night – several hours before the deadline set by President Donald Trump for Iran to meet US demands or face what he called the end of their “entire civilisation.”

Trump had stated in his declaration of the two-week ceasefire for further negotiations that “we have received a 10-point proposal from Iran, and believe it is an implementable basis for negotiation.”

Iranian state media subsequently published the 10-point plan, which specifically includes Iran’s continued control over the strategic Strait of Hormuz, the end of international sanctions against the country, and “acceptance” of uranium enrichment.

These points would contradict Washington’s public statements about what it wants from Iran.

Then on Wednesday (8/4), Trump used his Truth Social platform to attack those releasing untrue reports about the agreement or letters that he believes are not part of the actual deal.

“In many cases, they are frauds, fake soothsayers, and WORSE,” he said.

“There is only one group of ‘POINTS’ that is meaningful and acceptable to the United States, and we will discuss it privately during these Negotiations,” Trump said, without providing details. “These are the POINTS that form the basis of our ceasefire agreement.”
