Summary
Araqchi said mediators had not officially conveyed Washington’s rejection despite Trump’s public comments. Iran would decide how to proceed once it received the definitive US position through those channels.
Maintaining that negotiations were the only way to resolve Iran’s conflict with the United States and Israel, Araqchi wrote on social media: “Our conditions are clear, and any move towards reopening the Strait of Hormuz is contingent on these conditions being met. Only a negotiated solution can get them out of this deadlock.”
