Iran Wants to Reopen the Strait and Start Nuclear Talks With the US in Two Days
Iran said Monday it had a two-day plan to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and resume nuclear talks with the United States, cutting a procedure previously estimated to take seven days. Iran claimed it has a two-day plan to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and resume nuclear talks with the US if Washington met its conditions.
The declaration comes as the region braces for the possibility of further fighting, even as Iran’s top ambassador said Sunday he hoped the U.S. would choose diplomacy over other paths.
Iran has said it could implement the proposal within a week if the US meets seven requirements, including easing its blockade of Iranian ports.
Iran said ships using the reopened strait would have to follow a route agreed upon by Iran and Oman and would be under Iranian supervision.
Separately, Iranian officials have stated the US must waive restrictions on Iranian oil sales and commit to a truce that would cover Lebanon.
Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei said the plan would provide a framework for conversations with Washington through mediators, despite its limited implementation period. He said this is another example of Iran’s goodwill approach. Baghaei said there was no sign that Tehran’s demands had changed or that Washington had accepted its proposal.
Publicly, President Donald Trump has swung back and forth between diplomacy and threats to bomb Iran heavily.
The UN migration agency said the individuals are struggling to obtain shelter and basic needs, with relief agencies having restricted access to those in need.
