  "summary": "Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has expressed Iran's willingness to engage in diplomacy again, provided there is clear evidence of the United States' sincere intention to build trust and resolve the conflict. In an op-ed published in the Financial Times and shared on X, Araghchi emphasized that if the US opts for war over diplomacy, it will lead to a significant strategic failure. The statement underscores Iran's openness to dialogue but also warns of the potential consequences of a military approach.",
