Iran Says Talks With US ‘Do Not Mean Surrender’ as War-Ending Proposal Emerges
Iran’s president said negotiations with the United States “do not mean surrender” after reports emerged that Tehran may respond to a US-backed proposal aimed at ending the ongoing conflict.
According to Iranian state media IRNA, current discussions are expected to focus primarily on ending the war before broader disputes — including Iran’s nuclear program — are addressed.
The reported US framework would formally halt the conflict first, while negotiations on more sensitive regional and nuclear issues would continue in later stages.
Iranian officials have not yet revealed the full details of Tehran’s official response.
