Iran denies negotiating with US after Trump announces talks
Tehran says its only talks are with Oman on a temporary shipping route, while oil prices fell 4.6% after Trump’s announcement, officials said.
- Iran rejected President Donald Trump’s claim that direct bilateral negotiations would begin on Monday, stating it has no plans to send or receive negotiating delegations with the U.S.
- Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei clarified that current talks are strictly bilateral with Oman, focused solely on establishing a single temporary navigation route through the strategic Strait of Hormuz.
- Trump claimed he paused a planned military strike on Iran after regional allies—including Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE—urged the White House to pursue diplomacy.
- Tehran rejected assertions that it asked Washington for a strike pause or agreed to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, maintaining that the strategic waterway will not return to pre-war status as long as U.S. hostilties continue.
- The diplomatic whiplash follows months of conflict since February 2026, as global markets react to ongoing shipping disruptions and volatile energy prices in the Persian Gulf.
