Iran’s supreme leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, grants the government “certain authorities” to conduct peace talks with the United States, as reported by multiple outlets. The decision is described as a go-ahead that enables Tehran to pursue dialogue aimed at ending a Middle East war and managing tensions involving the US.
Several sources frame the move as a potential diplomatic opening amid concerns about renewed conflict with the US and Israel. Bloomberg highlights the broader strategic context of rising fears, while NDTV and Times of India focus on the delegation of “certain powers/authorities” to the government for the talks.
Middle East Eye, citing state media and attributing statements to Iran’s President Masoud Pezeshkian, adds that Iran will try to resolve the issue with dialogue, without further detail.
