China warns US not to cross 4 'red lines' as Xi heads to US for talks with Trump
On the sidelines of the UN General Assembly, US President Donald Trump met with Iranian officials for approximately three hours. The meeting, described by Trump as "very good," was held through mediators and included Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi. Iranian officials presented several conditions, such as ending the war, halting US aggression, and lifting the naval blockade.
Senior Iranian officials indicated a willingness to reopen the Strait of Hormuz within a week if the US took reciprocal steps to ease military and economic pressure on Iran. Iran's chief negotiator, Mohammad Ghalibaf, supported the idea of continuing negotiations while the war continued. President Trump warned Iran of potential destruction if a deal was not reached quickly, suggesting he could "annihilate" Iran.
Israel and Saudi Arabia have also been involved in the conflict, with a US blockade on Iranian oil further straining Tehran's economy. The ongoing war continues to impact global energy markets, particularly in the Red Sea shipping route and oil prices.
