Senior Iranian official demands US action before any talks

A senior Iranian official has called for concrete steps from the United States before the start of any negotiations.

The official said the country is dissatisfied with written commitments and is demanding practical measures from the US, according to Al Arabiya.

The spokesperson for the Iranian army stated that "any hostile acts or new adventures in the region will not lead to the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz," stressing that "the only way to reopen the strait is for the United States to comply with the seven conditions set by Iran."

The spokesperson added that "the Iranian Supreme Leader emphasized the importance of a swift response to any aggression during a meeting with military commanders." These statements come amid ongoing diplomatic moves related to the proposal Tehran submitted through intermediaries, as observers await the US response to Iran's demands before moving to final negotiations.
