War in Iran: Rhetoric hardens as the US elections approach The continued contacts through envoys have created a potential diplomatic opportunity for a rapprochement between Iran and the United States, even as both sides are prepared for a renewed military escalation. The Saudi Al Arabiya TV channel reported, citing a source, that Iran sent a delegation to Qatar to discuss the US proposals. According to the TV channel, Vance's initiatives find a positive response in Tehran, and a "positive atmosphere" prevails in the negotiations, which gives hope for a breakthrough in the near future. It should be noted that the announcement contains general principles only, and not a ready plan. To discuss the proposals regarding the Iranian nuclear program, the Iranian authorities have established special committees. According to sources in Al Arabiya, Tehran demands guarantees for a complete and final end to the war in exchange for the opening of the Strait of Hormuz. Tehran insists on ending hostilities before formal negotiations begin. Currently, contacts with the Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council of Iran Mohsen Razai and mediators are being conducted directly. In Doha, the Iranian delegation is working to agree on a road map together with the Qatari side. It is expected that if this document is successfully developed and progress is made in the negotiations with Iran, an American delegation will visit Qatar. After two days of negotiations mediated by Qatar, the Iranian authorities clarified that a deal is still possible, subject to the specific fulfillment of their demands. On Monday, Al Jazeera reported, citing a diplomat familiar with the situation, that the Iranian delegation had left Qatar after exchanging messages with the United States. "A draft proposal to end the war between the US and Israel against Iran has been circulated for feedback, and the possibility of a follow-up meeting is being discussed," said the diplomat, speaking on condition of anonymity.
