Iran Proposes Reopening Strait of Hormuz in Two Days If US Meets Conditions
Iran has proposed reopening the Strait of Hormuz within two days if the United States meets its demands, shortening an earlier one-week timeline. Iranian officials, including Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baqaei, emphasized this as a sign of good faith and said negotiations continue through mediators. Iran's conditions include ending regional conflicts, lifting sanctions, unfreezing assets, accepting a new transit route with Oman, and reducing US troop presence. The US has yet to respond, with Iran stating that further steps depend on Washington's acceptance.
