A “permanent end to hostilities” sounds good on paper, but without trust and enforcement mechanisms, it’s hard to see how both sides would agree—especially after escalation. The Hormuz security idea is also tricky; shifting to a regional-led framework would require buy-in from multiple players, not just Iran and the U.S.
The biggest sticking point is probably sanctions relief. Expecting immediate lifting plus compensation is a tough ask politically, particularly from the U.S. side.
Overall, this looks like a starting position for negotiations rather than a realistic endgame. Whether it leads to de-escalation depends on how much compromise both sides are actually willing to make.
