  "account": "Iran's security chief, Mohsen Rezaei, has stated that the United States' response to Iran's proposal to reopen the strategic Strait of Hormuz is insufficient. The proposal, presented during the UN General Assembly, outlined seven conditions that, if met, would result in the reopening of the waterway within seven days and the resumption of normal maritime passage. Rezaei, the Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council, emphasized that Iran remains firm on these conditions, asserting that the Strait of Hormuz will not be opened until they are fulfilled. The White House has not yet provided a response to Reuters' request for comment. Iran has indicated it is no longer actively engaging in negotiations with the United States. In late September, Tehran claimed to have received a US response to its latest proposal to restore the faltering Gulf ceasefire, following US President Donald Trump's assertion that he had rejected it. Efforts to resolve the conflict and reopen the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz have involved Qatar and other mediators facilitating communications between Washington and Tehran. The strait, which accounts for a fifth of the world's oil and liquefied natural gas, has been a focal point of tensions following a wave of US and Israeli strikes on Iran at the end of February.",
