Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi is set to meet with mediators in talks with the United States, as efforts to reopen the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz continue. According to Iran’s ISNA news agency, the delegation will discuss the latest proposals and viewpoints on the situation during the meetings on Monday morning.

A Qatari delegation has already presented Washington with an Iranian proposal to reopen the strait in exchange for economic relief. However, there are no plans for direct talks between Iranian and US officials, as per Tasnim news agency. The ongoing meetings come amid heightened tensions between the two nations, with both sides continuously trading proposals over the critical waterway.
