A senior Iranian government official said that Iran proposed that if the US takes initial steps to ease military pressure, Iran can re-open the Strait of Hormuz within 7 days. This is one of Tehran's steps to step up efforts to restart negotiations between the US and Iran. The official said that the proposal has been transmitted to the US through the mediator. The plan calls for the resumption of negotiations, with the goal of permanently ending the hostilities between the two countries. Tehran plans to use the UN General Assembly to be held in New York this week to consult with relevant countries acting as mediators. The official ruled out the possibility of a meeting between Iranian President Pezzahizyan and US President Trump on the sidelines of the conference, but said there is still a possibility of reaching an agreement. “There is a possibility of moving towards an agreement.” The official said at the same time, he added that if the diplomatic process is to make progress, the US side must show “sincerity and commitment.” The official said that Iran hopes to see the US send a signal that it is willing to return to negotiations and take action to lift the US military blockade on Iranian ports and stop military operations related to the Strait of Hormuz. The official said that if the US side implements the above measures, Iran is ready to reopen this strategic waterway within 7 days and return to the negotiation table.
