Iran FM: US voters have chosen, now White House must choose

The framing matters more than the substance: Tehran is casting the ball into Washington's court while keeping its proposal explicitly conditional on a halt to hostilities on all fronts, so the offer reads as a test of intent rather than a negotiating position. The explicit warning of consequences if war is chosen keeps escalation risk priced into the standoff. Whether the White House engages the proposal or lets it lapse is the open question, and the answer will shape how regional risk is read.
