Iran has offered to reopen the Strait of Hormuz within seven days if the United States takes initial steps toward easing military pressure, a senior Iranian government official told Kyodo News on Tuesday, as part of Tehran’s ramped-up efforts to revive negotiations with Washington.<\/p>\n
Tehran plans to use the U.N. General Assembly gathering this week in New York to consult with countries acting as intermediaries.<\/p>\n
The official ruled out a meeting between Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian and U.S. President Donald Trump on the fringes of the gathering, but said progress toward an agreement remains possible.<\/p>\n
Earlier, Mohsen Rezaei, Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, stated that Iranian authorities had conveyed terms for ending the war to the U.S. via Qatari intermediaries and were awaiting a response from U.S. President Donald Trump. According to Rezaei, Iran’s conditions include halting the war on all fronts, unfreezing Iranian assets, and lifting the naval blockade.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
