[Iranian Sources: The United States Says It is Ready to Negotiate with Iran] On September 19, a reporter from the main station learned from an unnamed high-level source in Iran that Qatar and Pakistan, as mediators, have informed Iran that the United States is ready to negotiate and reach an agreement, and is serious about advancing this process. Sources pointed out that as for Iran, as long as the United States returns to the Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding and implements its terms, Iran is also ready to resume implementation of the Memorandum of Understanding within a few days. However, Iran demands tangible and credible assurances that it will not be attacked again. The United States has previously stated that it is no longer interested in the memorandum of understanding, however, the substance of the memorandum of understanding remains crucial to Iran for any future agreement. Iran has no intention of seeking war because this conflict is not in the interest of Iran and other countries in the region, nor is it in the interest of the United States and the wider international community. The source said that once the United States implements the substance of the memorandum, including the cessation of hostilities, lifting of the blockade, and allowing Iran to export oil, Iran will immediately start negotiations on the nuclear issue and lifting sanctions. Iran has reached a consensus with Amanda on the Strait of Hormuz issue. However, as long as the blockade continues and no agreement is reached with the United States, "Iran will not reopen the Strait." (CCTV News)
