Iran Keeps Talking to US Through Mediators Over Two-Day Plan

Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi says Tehran is still holding indirect talks with Washington on a two-day plan, and any breakthrough now depends on how the US answers Iran’s questions.

Tehran Confirms Talks Are Still Moving Forward

Iran is continuing its indirect talks with the United States over a two-day plan, according to Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi. He said whether this Iran US two-day plan actually works out will come down to how Washington responds.

“Consultations on the two day plan continue through intermediaries. Consultations are moving toward implementation, but no final decision has been reached. Reaching a result depends on the answers the American side gives to our questions,” Araghchi said. His comments were shared on his Telegram channel.

Qatar Has Been Quietly Helping Both Sides Talk

Araghchi explained that these discussions around the Iran US two-day plan have been going on for several weeks now. Qatar has been acting as the go-between for Tehran and Washington during this stretch.

“We are making efforts… and we hope the American side will take a sensible decision to prefer diplomacy over alternative paths,” Araghchi added.

How the Conflict Got Here

The US and Israel launched strikes on sites inside Iran on February 28, and Iran struck back in response. By mid-June, Tehran and Washington had signed a memorandum to halt the fighting. Fresh strikes were exchanged soon after that, though. The conflict between the two sides is still unresolved today.

Iran’s Earlier Offer and Trump’s Rejection

Tehran had previously said it offered Washington its own seven-point plan. That proposal included options to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. In exchange, Iran wanted the naval blockade lifted and oil export limits removed. US President Donald Trump turned the offer down.

Iran’s foreign ministry later said it had received the American response to that plan. Tehran then shared its own assessment of Washington’s reply through Qatari channels, keeping the door open on the broader Iran US two-day plan talks.
