Iran Welcomes US Letter as Positive Step but Rules Out Immediate Talks
Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi welcomed a letter from US Vice President JD Vance as a positive step toward dialogue but stated there are currently no plans for direct talks. Iran's conditions include lifting sanctions and reducing US forces in the region. Meanwhile, Iran's top security official Mohsen Rezaei said the US tone in the letter has 'completely shifted,' viewing it as a positive sign. Indirect mediation efforts continue, with possible meetings in Doha or Istanbul, amid warnings from Iran's Supreme Leader about military responses to any attacks.
