Iran has criticized the United States' response as falling short of the conditions demanded for reopening the Strait of Hormuz and resuming talks, according to Iran’s Supreme National Security Council secretary Mohsen Rezaei. In a statement on X, Rezaei stated that while Washington has agreed to some of Iran’s seven conditions, the overall response is deemed inadequate.

Rezaei emphasized that Iran’s diplomatic approach has evolved and there will be no return to the previous status quo. Iran’s primary demands include lifting the US naval blockade and removing restrictions on its oil exports. Tehran has proposed restoring passage through the strait and restarting negotiations once the US fulfills these conditions.

Rezaei has previously stated that the Strait of Hormuz will not be opened to the US or that talks will begin until Washington meets these demands. The U.S. has acknowledged accepting some of Iran’s conditions, but Rezaei maintains that the response is INADEQUATE.
