An Iranian source told CNN on Tuesday that there has been a “rapprochement” between the United States and Iran, and that Tehran is willing to listen to “viable” proposals to end the war.
“There has been rapprochement between the United States and Iran, initiated by Washington in recent days, but nothing that has reached the level of full negotiations,” the source said. “Messages have been exchanged through various intermediaries to explore whether an agreement to end the war can be reached.”
“The proposals under consideration aim not only at achieving a ceasefire, but at a concrete agreement to end the conflict between the United States and Iran,” the source added, without providing further details.
The source declined to comment on public statements by Donald Trump regarding negotiations, emphasizing that Iran’s position has always been clear—that Tehran is willing to review any workable proposal.
“Iran is not seeking a meeting or direct talks with the United States, but is ready to listen if a plan for a sustainable agreement becomes achievable that would safeguard the national interests of the Islamic Republic of Iran,” the source said.
“Iran is prepared to provide all necessary guarantees that it will never develop nuclear weapons, but it has the right to the peaceful use of nuclear technology.” The source insisted that any proposal must also include the lifting of all sanctions imposed on Iran.
