Trump had previously threatened 'massive attacks' on Iran but later canceled them, citing potential diplomatic discussions. Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmail Bagej stated that Iran has no plans to host foreign delegations or send negotiators abroad, except for Minister Abbas Arakchi who is on a pilgrimage in Iraq. The situation appears to follow a pattern since Trump began Operation 'Exodus' with Israel over five months ago, where he repeatedly threatened military action but then backed down, justifying it through diplomatic efforts. Iran has rejected negotiations with Washington since the collapse of the June understanding agreement aimed at ending the conflict. The dispute over control of the Strait of Hormuz remains a central point of contention, with the U.S. insisting Iran must open the strategically important waterway while Tehran claims the agreement explicitly guaranteed its authority over maritime traffic.

The Iranian Supreme National Security Council, led by President Masoud Pezeshkian under the oversight of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, stated that the U.S. must end its war against Iran and its regional allies, lift the maritime blockade on Iranian ports, withdraw military forces from the region, fully compensate Iran for wartime damage, remove sanctions, and unfreeze Iranian assets. Iran emphasized that it will not back down from these demands and expects the U.S. to demonstrate genuine changes in behavior. The U.S. has yet to respond directly. These demands were previously part of broader negotiations over a comprehensive agreement, but now they are specifically tied to reopening the Strait of Hormuz.

tportalIndependentCenterFactual 75Objective 6519 days ago Tehran: 'Trump's latest comments could spark the third world war'Iran has accused U.S. President Donald Trump of potentially igniting the spark of a Third World War through his actions, particularly regarding the Strait of Hormuz. Following Trump's statement that the Strait could be reopened 'literally tomorrow,' Iran's top advisor, Mohsen Rezaei, warned against any military presence near the Strait, stating that any warship approaching would be attacked. Trump outlined a two-step peace process involving reopening the Strait and Iran's nuclear disarmament. Meanwhile, Iran rejected direct negotiations with the U.S., opting instead to engage with Oman over a temporary solution for safe passage through the Strait. According to a high-ranking Iranian source, Iran and Oman are considering a plan where Iran would control all ships entering the Strait, while Oman would oversee their exit. This approach suggests Iran aims to bypass the U.S. after previous failed attempts at reaching an agreement.
