Mediation efforts said that "Qatar and Pakistan presented a 'compromise proposal' that meets the demands of both the American and Iranian sides", Al Araby Al Jadeed reports citing sources

The proposal seeks to prevent a return to escalation and paves the way for both sides to return to the negotiating table. The proposal that the Pakistani army chief presented to Iranian officials today has American approval and has also received prior Iranian approval. The mediation presented a proposal that was met with a positive response from both parties, involving the payment of USD 6bln in interest, which represents Iranian funds frozen in Qatari banks. The proposal includes a "partial response" to the Iranian demand to return frozen Iranian funds. The proposal responds to an American demand regarding Iran's nuclear program, as it agreed to a secret visit by the IAEA to its nuclear sites.
