Iran Expands Diplomacy as US Strike Threats Grow

Iran intensified its diplomatic efforts as US President Donald Trump said Washington may resume major strikes. Tehran presented a new proposal on the nuclear file and peace through Qatari mediators and linked any discussion to Washington accepting seven demands, including sanctions relief, release of frozen Iranian assets, and an end to the US naval blockade of Iranian ports. Iranian security official Mohsen Rezaei also carried a message from Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei to Russian President Vladimir Putin in Moscow, while Tehran warned of a wider response if US attacks resume.
