Iran is reviewing the latest points put forward by the United States in response to Tehran’s position, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmail Baghaei said at a weekly press conference in Tehran on Monday. He said Iran would make its stance public through mediators after completing the review, adding that the US reply relates to Iran’s “seven-day plan” and its call for the restoration of the country’s “legitimate rights.”
Iran to respond through mediators
Baghaei said Tehran had received the latest points from Washington and was examining them. He did not announce a final Iranian decision at the press conference. Instead, he said the country’s position would be conveyed publicly through mediators once the review was complete.
The statement indicates that Iran’s response is not yet final. Baghaei offered no timetable for when the review would end or when the mediators would communicate Tehran’s position. He also did not identify the mediators or describe the channel through which the US reply had been delivered.
His comments leave the substance of the latest US proposal undisclosed. Baghaei described it as a response to Iran’s position, but did not provide details about the American points or say whether Tehran viewed them as acceptable. He likewise did not outline what changes, if any, Iran might seek before making its stance public.
Link to Iran’s seven-day plan
Baghaei said the US reply relates to Iran’s “seven-day plan,” which calls for the restoration of Iran’s “legitimate rights.” He did not explain the plan’s specific measures or set out how the latest US points address its demands. The remarks therefore connect the current exchange to Iran’s stated plan without providing further detail about the terms under discussion.
The spokesperson’s wording presents the US reply as part of an ongoing exchange between the two sides, with Iran now considering the points before it. For now, Tehran has said it will communicate its position through mediators rather than announcing a decision during the press conference. The next public indication of Iran’s response is expected only after the review is complete, according to Baghaei’s account.
The comments provide no further information about the scope of the proposal, the issues it covers or the outcome Iran may favor. Baghaei did not say whether the review would lead to an acceptance, rejection or counterproposal. Until Tehran makes its position public, those details remain unstated.
Baghaei’s announcement was limited to the status of the review and the route through which Iran intends to share its response. It confirms that the latest US points are being considered in relation to Iran’s seven-day plan, but gives no additional terms or timeline for the next step.
