Svmuu News: On July 10 local time, U.S. President Donald Trump posted on his social media platform “True Social” that Iran hopes to continue “negotiations” with the U.S., and that the U.S. has agreed to continue negotiations.Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Baghaei said on the 10th that Iran had never requested negotiations with the U.S., but had agreed to allow mediators to visit Iran. Wang Jin, an expert on Middle East affairs, noted that dialogue between the U.S. and Iran is unlikely to resume in the short term, as the conflict between the two countries remains ongoing.
For both sides, the current foundation of trust is extremely fragile, making it impossible to establish a suitable atmosphere for dialogue in the short term. More importantly, public opinion in both the United States and Iran remains skeptical about the resumption of U.S.-Iran dialogue at this time.This is especially true given that the U.S. launched attacks during the funeral of Iran’s former Supreme Leader Khamenei, making it difficult for Iran to fully trust the U.S. in the short term. Therefore, while resuming dialogue in the near future is challenging, it does not mean that the mechanisms for peace have been completely lost.On the one hand, countries such as Qatar, Oman, and Pakistan are continuing their uninterrupted mediation efforts, hoping to re-encourage and assist in establishing communication channels between the United States and Iran.
