According to US media reports on September 27th local time, US President Trump stated in an interview that he expects to continue negotiations with Iran this week. This comes a day after Trump rejected Iran's proposal to end the war.
Trump stated that Iran wants an agreement, but "not the kind of agreement I want," and that Iran "overestimated its bargaining chips." When asked if he was considering resuming military strikes against Iran, Trump said, "I've been thinking about it."
On the 27th local time, Iranian Foreign Minister Araqchi stated that Iran will not concede to the US on its established conditions. The opening of the Strait of Hormuz depends on whether Iran's conditions are met, and any progress regarding the opening of the Strait of Hormuz depends on whether these conditions are implemented. Iran will never compromise on these issues.
Araqchi stated that Iran has been informed of the US's initial response to the proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, but has not yet received any specific information from the mediators. Iran is awaiting the mediators' final position and will make a decision accordingly.
