Iran says no talks planned with US at UN General Assembly
Iran's views and positions were clearly conveyed to the US side through a Qatari mediator, according to state media.
Iran's delegation to the UN General Assembly has no plans for talks with the US, according to state media. This comes after US President Donald Trump expressed his expectation for more negotiations, following his rejection of Iran's proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz within seven days. The Iranian delegation in New York conveyed their views and positions to the US side through a Qatari mediator, according to IRNA.
Iran presented seven conditions for ending the war and reopening the strategic waterway, which was blocked by Tehran following US-Israeli strikes in February. These demands include a seven-day ceasefire across the Middle East, unfreezing of Iran's foreign assets, lifting sanctions on its oil sector, and ending the US naval blockade.
However, Trump rejected these demands on Saturday. Despite the ongoing conflict, fighting has slowed as the US has not struck Iran since September 1.
