Iran's top security official Mohsen Rezaei said Tehran is tying a reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and any renewed U.S. talks to Washington meeting seven conditions.
Rezaei said the demands were included in a June interim agreement. Tehran’s stated prerequisite is that the United States meet them; a response alone would not fulfill that condition. EconoTimes previously covered Iran’s link between the seven conditions, Hormuz access and talks.
Speaking to Al-Mayadeen, Rezaei said Iran had asked Washington to state its position on the conditions and had yet to receive an answer. He said the United States could respond later.
Reuters reported that U.S. President Donald Trump met with Qatar, a mediator, on Monday. Trump downplayed the prospect of major fighting restarting soon while remaining unwilling to accept Iran’s current truce plan.
