""I have instructed my Minister of Foreign Affairs, provided that a suitable environment exists one free from threats and unreasonable expectations to pursue fair and equitable negotiations, guided by the principles of dignity, prudence, and expediency," Pezeshkian wrote in English on social media. He said this was in light of "requests from friendly governments in the region for talks.""
""On Monday, Trump had said that with large US warships heading to Iran, "bad things" would probably happen if a deal could not be reached. The US president's messages to Iran have been somewhat mixed, with him on the one hand pushing for talks and a deal with the government, while also saying that "help is on the way""
President Masoud Pezeshkian instructed his foreign minister to pursue fair and equitable negotiations with the United States for a successor nuclear accord, provided a suitable environment exists free from threats and unreasonable expectations. He referenced requests from friendly regional governments for talks. The statement comes amid large anti-government protests and reports of the regime's sometimes violent crackdown. Tensions with the United States were further exemplified by small maritime incidents later in the day. The US, Arab states and Turkey are pushing to arrange fresh talks with Iran. US President Donald Trump issued mixed messages, warning of possible trouble while also saying "help is on the way."
