Iran sends conditions to end war and resume talks to US via Qatar, official says

Mohsen Rezaei, secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, told Al Jazeera that Tehran has transmitted its conditions for re-engaging in negotiations and ending the war to the United States. The message was delivered through Qatar, which acted as an intermediary between the two sides.

According to Rezaei, Iran is now waiting for a response from US President Donald Trump's administration. He did not disclose the specific details of the conditions, though he confirmed they relate to both a possible resumption of diplomatic talks and an end to the ongoing conflict.

Qatar's mediating role

Qatar has repeatedly served as a mediator in regional conflicts, including in communications between Iran and Western nations. This latest development suggests Doha continues to play that role amid the current tensions between Tehran and Washington.

Rezaei holds a senior position within Iran's security and foreign policy establishment, and his public statements are often seen as reflecting official positions at the highest levels of the Iranian government. The fact that Iran is publicly discussing the transmission of conditions suggests at least a signal of willingness to pursue a diplomatic path.

It remains unclear when, or whether, the US side will respond to the conditions it has received. The situation remains uncertain, with both sides said to be awaiting further developments on the matter.
