Iran War | Iran has conveyed seven conditions to the United States for restarting negotiations aimed at ending the ongoing war, with Tehran awaiting a response from US President Donald Trump.
Mohsen Rezaei, secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, said Qatar had passed Tehran’s conditions to Washington. Pakistan and Qatar have been involved in efforts to revive negotiations between the two sides.
Rezaei said Iran’s key demands include an end to the war on all fronts, the release of frozen Iranian funds and the lifting of the US naval blockade.
He said Tehran was prepared to resume discussions if Washington addressed its conditions. At the same time, he warned that Iran was prepared for what he described as a “decisive war” if its demands were rejected.
Iran War | Iran Seeks End to Blockade as Fighting Continues
The latest diplomatic move comes as military tensions continue across the region. The United States has maintained a naval blockade affecting Iranian ports, while fighting and attacks involving Iran, Israel, the US and regional armed groups have continued.
Iran has also been seeking regional support over the situation in the Strait of Hormuz, a critical route for global energy shipments. Earlier efforts involving Iran and Oman to establish arrangements for restoring maritime traffic faced difficulties because of differences among regional countries.
The situation has also widened beyond Iran. Saudi Arabia said its air defences intercepted a ballistic missile launched towards Riyadh by Yemen’s Houthi rebels on September 19.
The Houthis also claimed attacks on Saudi oil infrastructure, although those claims have not been independently verified.
Diplomatic Solution
The developments add to pressure for a diplomatic solution while military operations continue.
For Tehran, lifting the naval blockade and ending hostilities remain central to any return to negotiations. Washington has yet to publicly accept Iran’s latest conditions.
Rezaei’s statement indicates that diplomatic channels remain open, but there is no confirmed agreement to end the war or restart formal negotiations.
