Iran has unveiled the list of demands to end the war that it sent to President Donald Trump, which sparked one of his all-caps Truth Social outbursts.

The list submitted by Tehran includes demands for compensation for war damage sustained during the now 10-week conflict, as well as recognition of Iranian sovereignty over the vital Strait of Hormuz shipping route.

Iran is also demanding that the U.S. end its naval blockade of Iranian ports, lift sanctions against the country, guarantee no further attacks—including in Lebanon—and end the U.S. ban on Iranian oil sales, state media reported, via Reuters and The New York Times.

It wouldn't have been. Im not saying its not a thing, but this is all about keeping the US as the petrol hegemony. Its a nice side effect though.
