Iran US conditions — Major General Mohsen Rezaei, secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, stated on Sunday that the United States has responded to Tehran’s seven conditions for ending the war and reopening the Strait of Hormuz, but that Iran finds the American reply insufficient. The comments, reported by the state news agency IRNA, signal a continued deadlock in indirect negotiations over the critical maritime chokepoint and the broader regional conflict.

Rezaei did not publicly detail the specific conditions Iran has set, nor the content of the US response. His statement frames the diplomatic exchange as ongoing but currently unsatisfactory from Tehran’s perspective. The Strait of Hormuz is a vital global oil transit route, and its closure or restriction has long been a point of geopolitical tension.

The remarks highlight the persistent challenges in de-escalating hostilities, with Iran using its strategic position to leverage demands against Washington. The lack of a breakthrough suggests that the risk of further military or economic confrontation in the Persian Gulf remains high.
