Iran: Exchange of messages with the US continues through Qatar, State Department says Washington must decide Deputy Foreign Minister Garibabadi visited Doha to facilitate exchanges between Iran and the United States through Qatari mediation. The Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council will decide how to respond to the American announcement. Iran claims that its summary proposal can be fully implemented within two days, but security in the Strait of Hormuz will not be achieved without the lifting of the economic blockade, and the implementation, negotiations and restoration of security depend on the American side. Foreign Ministry spokesman Bagai said the United States "must decide" and accused Washington of sacrificing its credibility for Israel.
