Vance sent a letter to Mohsen Rezaei to explore the possibility of new negotiations.Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said the government would carry out the supreme leader’s directive to emerge from a state of “neither war nor peace,” while remaining ready to apply pressure and make threats.Donald Trump confirmed that Vance had written to Iranian officials, but said the aim was to offer medical supplies, not to restart peace talks.Amid the diplomatic signals, Brent futures fell 0.94% to $114.24 a barrel, while WTI futures fell 1.31% to $101.43.The prospects for negotiations remain uncertain due to disagreements over Iran’s nuclear program, sanctions and the terms of an agreement.Iran wants an end to ‘neither war nor peace’ as Vance opens backchannel with Tehran (The Statesman)Цената на петрола се понижава със засилването на дипломацията в Близкия изток* (Investor.bg)С Ираном Трамп предпочитает дипломатию (Haqqin.az)Αραγτσί: «Το Ιράν δεν έχει καμία πρόθεση να διαπραγματευθεί με τις Ηνωμένες Πολιτείες σε αυτήν την φάση» (Ta Nea)Ιράν: Συζήτηση στην Τεχεράνη για την επιστολή Βανς – «Δεν υπάρχουν σχέδια για απευθείας συνομιλίες» (EfSyn (Efsyn))
