Iranian Official Signals Willingness to Negotiate with U.S. if Trust is Restored
Ebrahim Azizi, head of the Iranian parliament's national security committee, stated in an interview that Iran is open to negotiating with the U.S. if American negotiators, including President Trump, demonstrate sincerity. Azizi expressed skepticism about Trump's claims that a deal is near, citing a lack of trust. He emphasized that Iran would engage in talks if the U.S. adhered to negotiation rules and showed genuine intent. The main issues hindering progress include the U.S.'s freezing of Iranian assets and Iran's stance on uranium enrichment and nuclear weapons. Azizi highlighted the need for a realistic framework to facilitate a ceasefire, which he claims is currently obstructed by U.S. actions.
