"Iran has transmitted written messages to the Americans via mediator Pakistan, which were about some of the red lines of the Islamic Republic of Iran, including nuclear issues and the Strait of Hormuz."
"US President Donald Trump last week indefinitely extended the ceasefire that Washington and Tehran agreed to on April 7, which has largely halted the fighting that began with joint US-Israeli strikes on Iran on February 28."
"Iran has effectively blocked the Strait of Hormuz, cutting off vast quantities of oil, natural gas and fertiliser from the global market, sending prices soaring."
"Trump later told Fox News he had scrapped the trip, saying there was no point sitting around talking about nothing."
Abbas Araghchi, Iran's top diplomat, has traveled to Moscow after visiting Islamabad, aiming to maintain dialogue prospects with the United States. Despite indirect communications through Pakistan regarding Iran's nuclear concerns and the Strait of Hormuz, direct talks with the U.S. remain uncertain. The ceasefire between Iran and the U.S. has been extended, but a permanent resolution is still out of reach. Economic impacts from the conflict continue to affect global markets, particularly due to disruptions in oil and gas supplies.
