“The United States and Israel are not mentioned at all,” Ian explains, noting the plan avoids assigning blame and calls simply for an immediate cessation of hostilities. The plan also prioritizes securing shipping lanes and restoring global trade, addressing rising oil prices.

Ian also points to a potential opportunity for the US to delay military action. “This is a convenient opportunity for Trump to climb down,” he says, referencing the president’s earlier deadlines to target Iranian infrastructure.

Lastly, Ian highlights UN efforts to protect fertilizer and food shipments, warning that delays could disproportionately affect the world’s poorest.
