US and Iranian officials are set to hold separate talks with mediators this week. Qatari mediators are expected to meet with Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi in New York, and separately with the US side, according to an official briefed on the negotiations.
The talks are focused on an amended version of a seven-day proposal presented by Iran, aiming to end seven months of war that began in late February with US and Israeli attacks on Iran. The conflict has resulted in thousands of deaths and disrupted global oil markets due to choked waterways.
Iran has presented its conditions for restoring passage of maritime traffic in the Strait of Hormuz to the US and international community, as reported by state news agency IRNA. Araghchi stated that Iran has presented a solution for a peaceful resolution and expects to receive the US response through Qatari mediators. However, there are differing reports on the progress of the talks, with a US senior official saying they are making progress, while an Iranian diplomatic source claims they are not going well.
