KEY POINTS
- Iran delivered seven conditions to the US via Qatar for negotiations to end the war
- Three public conditions: end war on all fronts, release frozen funds, lift naval blockade
- Mohsen Rezaei warns Trump's threats will fail; Iran ready for "decisive war"
- Qatar and Pakistan mediating since MOU expired last month
- Conflict originated from US-Israeli strikes on Iran in late February
Iran has transmitted seven conditions to the United States through Qatari mediators to begin negotiations aimed at ending the conflict, according to Iranian security official Mohsen Rezaei. The publicly disclosed terms require a cessation of war on all fronts, the release of frozen Iranian assets, and the lifting of a naval blockade. Rezaei stated Tehran is awaiting President Donald Trump's response.
Rezaei warned that Trump's threats will not produce results and declared Iran prepared for a "decisive war." He assessed the likelihood of a new US strike as "very much on the cards" based on military evaluations, adding that Iran's planning has evolved since earlier clashes and now focuses on US naval forces from the Gulf to the Arabian Sea.
“Trump's threats will not achieve any results. We are prepared for a decisive war.”
Qatar and Pakistan have been working to revive talks since a memorandum of understanding expired last month. Regional governments have also sought an end to the fighting that began after US and Israeli strikes on Iran in late February. Rezaei also expressed support for ending the Saudi Arabia-Houthi conflict in Yemen.
