Iran has reportedly outlined a set of conditions to end its ongoing conflict with the United States, even as Donald Trump claimed that Tehran is seeking to negotiate a deal. The developments come amid escalating tensions in West Asia, with both sides signalling sharply contrasting positions on the possibility of de-escalation.
According to Iranian officials, Tehran has proposed six key conditions to halt hostilities, including the closure of US military bases in the region, guarantees to prevent future conflicts, and the establishment of a legal framework governing the Strait of Hormuz. Additional demands reportedly include compensation payments, an end to broader regional conflicts, and action against media figures considered hostile by Iran.
Trump, however, dismissed the idea of negotiations, stating that while Iran “wants to make a deal", he is not interested. He also issued a warning that the US could target critical infrastructure, including power plants, if key shipping routes such as the Strait of Hormuz are not kept open. The remarks reflect a hardline stance even as diplomatic signals emerge from multiple sides.

Iranian officials have indicated that regional intermediaries are actively conveying proposals aimed at ending the conflict. Meanwhile, in a separate diplomatic outreach, Narendra Modi spoke with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian, emphasising the need to keep vital shipping lanes secure and calling for stability in the region. The situation remains fluid, with growing international concern over the potential for further escalation and its impact on global trade and security.
