Iran's President Masoud Pezeshkian expressed frustration over stalled negotiations with the United States, attributing the failure to three main factors: the ongoing naval blockade of Iranian ports, breaches of commitments, and threats from the US. In a post on X, he criticized the US for its contradictory rhetoric, stating that the world recognizes the hypocrisy in its claims versus actions. Negotiations, which were expected to occur in Pakistan, were postponed after US President Donald Trump extended a ceasefire to allow Iran time to formulate a unified proposal. Despite this, tensions remain high, as Iran has seized three vessels following the ceasefire announcement, while the US continues its blockade near the Strait of Hormuz. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt clarified that Trump has not set a deadline for Iran's proposal, emphasizing that he will determine the timeline. Meanwhile, Iran's UN envoy indicated that there may be signs of the US's willingness to lift the blockade, which could lead to a new round of negotiations in Islamabad.
