Iran will negotiate with the United States only if Tehran's conditions are met.
Iran will consider negotiations with the United States only if Washington meets its commitments regarding the conditions set by Tehran and provides practical guarantees, an Iranian security source told Al Jazeera. "The claims that the Strait of Hormuz will be reopened in exchange for the reduction of tension are not true; the Strait will not be opened until the aforementioned conditions are met," said the source.
