According to reports from Tehran, there is no clear sign that legitimate discussions are currently happening between the Iranian regime and the US government. This statement was made despite awareness of a deadline set by former US President Donald Trump concerning the Strait of Hormuz.

Reporting from Tehran, FRANCE 24’s Reza Sayad said that “everyone” in Iran is aware of US President Donald Trump’s deadline to reopen the strait of Hormuz, but regardless of what the White House might be saying “there’s no indication that legitimate talks are taking place” between the regime and Washington.
