Pakistani officials say Iran's latest response to U.S. terms for a peace deal delivered to American officials

Pakistani officials told CBS News on Friday that a revised Iranian response to the latest U.S. terms to end the war had been conveyed to American officials, confirming Iranian state media reports that Iran had offered a new proposal to at least hold a second round of direct peace talks.

The Pakistani officials said Tehran had delivered to the U.S. through Pakistani mediators a revised response to the latest U.S. amendments on an agreement to end the war.

The previous Iranian offer had attempted to push any discussion on nuclear issues to a later date, which President Trump rejected. 

The Pakistani officials expressed optimism that a deal could be nearer than it was before Iran made its new offer.
