Tehran has sent a negotiation proposal to Washington through Iran's Interests Section in Egypt, according to an official statement from Iran's Foreign Ministry today. This move is seen as the latest effort to ease tensions between the two countries, which have escalated in recent months.
Iran's Interests Section in Cairo, which operates as an official communication channel between Iran and the US amid the lack of diplomatic relations, has relayed the message to the American side. Tehran emphasized its desire to reach a comprehensive agreement that could address key issues such as the nuclear program and sanctions.
Analysts suggest this proposal could be a strategic step by Iran to re-establish dialogue after the US repeatedly imposed economic sanctions and increased its military presence in the region. However, there has been no official response from the White House or the US State Department to this proposal yet.
Previously, many Iranian officials stated that Tehran does not rule out the possibility of dialogue but stressed that negotiations must be based on mutual respect and without pressure. The choice of Egypt as an intermediary indicates Tehran's intention to leverage Cairo's diplomatic role in the Middle East.
According to close sources, Iran's proposal outlines a readiness to discuss confidence-building measures, including control over the nuclear program, in exchange for the lifting of some sanctions. However, specific details have not been publicly disclosed.
