Iranian officials said diplomatic contacts with the United States remain active even as President Donald Trump renewed the prospect of military strikes. AP reported that Iran remains open to talks under a Pakistan-brokered arrangement, while NewsNation said messages were still passing between the two countries and that Trump had ruled out a strike on Sunday.

Iran also questioned Washington’s commitment to negotiations. Anadolu Agency reported that Tehran described the United States as “not serious” about talks and rejected US claims concerning Iran’s nuclear program. Iran International characterized Tehran’s public statements on a potential deal as conflicting.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said another US attack would not change Iran’s policies, according to The Times of Israel. Australia’s ABC similarly reported that Iran said a renewed war with the United States would not change its position, while also declaring that the Strait of Hormuz was “no longer the same.” CBS News reported that Tehran had dismissed Trump’s attack threats while maintaining that diplomacy was continuing. Oil prices remained high amid the tensions.
