Iran demands US troop withdrawal, sanctions relief in 14-point plan

Iran has issued a 14-point plan demanding the withdrawal of U.S. troops and sanctions relief as part of its response to a U.S. ceasefire proposal. This development follows the U.S.-Israeli Operation Epic Fury strikes on Iranian targets, escalating the conflict that began on February 28, 2026. The plan indicates a toughened stance and reduces the likelihood of a U.S. agreement.
