The statement underscores the diplomatic standoff over regional security, where Iran insists on a clear commitment from the U.S. before proceeding. With global trade routes hanging in the balance, the move highlights the delicate balance between de-escalation and unresolved disputes. The development comes as international observers watch closely for any signs of progress—or further escalation—in the volatile region.
