Iran rejects U.S. negotiations until specific conditions are met

Mohsen Rezaei, Secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, has declared that Iran will not engage in negotiations with the United States until its specific conditions are met. Rezaei warned against being misled by the contradictory signals from U.S. President Donald Trump, who has fluctuated between refusing dialogue and expressing readiness to talk.

Rezaei emphasized that the regional landscape regarding oil markets and strategic maritime straits has fundamentally changed. This follows reports from the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Navy regarding the destruction of the Al-Gaya oil tanker after it reportedly struck a mine while attempting to transit a restricted area south of the Strait of Hormuz.

In response to these tensions, Donald Trump stated on Truth Social that Iran is seeking a deal with great urgency, though he noted that the U.S. would decide whether to participate. Meanwhile, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian affirmed that the nation would not surrender, warning that any conflict should target military forces rather than civilian infrastructure.
