Iran's Supreme National Security Council Secretary Mohsen Rezaei denied on Monday, November 9, that Tehran is engaged in negotiations with Washington. In a social media post, Rezaei accused the US administration of fabricating talks and demanded that the United States accept Iran's seven conditions to end the conflict. Tehran's demands include the lifting of US economic sanctions, the end of a naval blockade on its ports, the unfreezing of its assets, and compensation for war damages. Iran also seeks a reduction in US military presence in the Middle East and a lasting cessation of hostilities in the region, specifically mentioning Lebanon and Gaza. The proposal explicitly excludes future negotiations regarding Iran's nuclear and ballistic missile programs. Earlier on Monday, US President Donald Trump had stated that Iran was talking to the US and that the conflict could end "quite quickly." Trump deemed further strikes unlikely but assured that US forces were prepared to resume operations if necessary. On Sunday, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio adopted a more reserved tone, indicating that while several countries were exploring diplomatic avenues, no major breakthroughs appeared imminent. Rubio also considered several of Iran's demands unrealistic.
