The United States and Iran are expected to hold another round of talks on Sept. 28 or 29 through mediators, according to Odaily, citing an official familiar with the negotiations. The discussions are expected to focus on revising a proposal Iran raised during the United Nations General Assembly that would reopen the Strait of Hormuz within seven days. Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi and Qatari mediators are currently in the United States, the report said. Earlier, on Sept. 22, US special envoy Witkoff and Jared Kushner, former President Donald Trump’s son-in-law, held indirect talks with Araghchi in New York during the UN General Assembly through Qatar. According to US media reports cited in the brief, Iran proposed that if the US lifts its maritime blockade, removes sanctions on oil sales, and restores a regional ceasefire, Tehran would reopen the Strait of Hormuz within seven days and restart nuclear talks. Trump told reporters on Sept. 26 that he had rejected the proposal. On Sept. 27, he said he expected the US and Iran to resume negotiations within the coming week.
