Iran's chief negotiator said Sunday that Tehran has transmitted its conditions to the United States for reopening the Strait of Hormuz, a strategic waterway central to the ongoing conflict. Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf stated that returning to pre-negotiation conditions is impossible until US commitments are met. Iran's demands include ending the war on all fronts, unfreezing its assets, and lifting the American naval blockade. The US has imposed a blockade on Iranian ports in response. Pakistan's Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi was scheduled to visit Tehran Sunday for mediation efforts between the two countries.
