US media: Iran claims ships in Hormuz were attacked by "hardliners"
4 6877
Iran allegedly claimed that commercial vessels in Hormuz were attacked by "hardliners" who had gotten out of Tehran's control and wanted to disrupt the negotiation process. Iranian leaders acknowledge the error and express a desire to continue negotiations with the United States, but have not disclosed the identity of the perpetrator of the incident in the Strait of Hormuz.
CBS News reported this, citing high-ranking American officials who called those responsible for the breakdown of the negotiations a "misguided sect."
They claim the Iranian side made this statement to White House representatives through closed channels. The US administration believes that a private acknowledgment of the error is not enough and is demanding that Tehran make it official. After all, Washington considers attacks on civilian vessels in the Strait of Hormuz a violation of the ceasefire.
According to US media reports, US President Donald Trump has instructed his negotiators to continue dialogue with the Iranian side. The United States will be represented at the talks by Vice President J.D. Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Special Envoy Steven Witkoff, and the White House's son-in-law, Jared Kushner.
According to journalists, a US-Iranian meeting is scheduled to take place today in Oman. The channel's sources claim that if Tehran continues to behave hostilely, Washington will use military and economic leverage against it.
