Iran's Security Chief Says US Shifted Tone in Talks With Tehran

Iran's Supreme National Security Council Secretary Mohsen Rezaei stated that the United States has changed its "tone" in dialogue with the republic, citing a new letter from Washington that Tehran has received but not yet answered. Rezaei said the letter, delivered via American intermediaries to Iran's Foreign Ministry, shows a "noticeable change in tone" compared to previous correspondence, which he framed as evidence of "the strengthening of authority and victory of the Iranian people." On October 28, The Wall Street Journal reported, citing sources, that U.S. Vice President JD Vance sent a letter to Rezaei on President Donald Trump's orders to resume negotiations, though Trump later denied this. Iran confirmed receipt of the letter today.
