The United States knows the requirements for normalizing relations, the Iranian Foreign Ministry said

The United States knows Iran's demands - when Washington fulfills them, Tehran will be ready to take reciprocal steps to normalize relations, Deputy Foreign Minister of the Islamic Republic Kazem Gharib-Abadi told RIA Novosti.

"Of course, they are aware of what conditions and requirements must be met; once these conditions and requirements are met, the Islamic Republic of Iran, in turn, will take the necessary actions," Gharib-Abadi said.

Iran's Foreign Ministry earlier said it had handed over a seven-day plan to the United States to open the Strait of Hormuz in exchange for lifting the naval blockade and export restrictions. US President Donald Trump rejected the proposal. At the same time, Tehran said that it had explained to Washington through intermediaries Iran’s position on the US response and was preparing a more detailed response.
