The United States and Iran will hold another round of indirect negotiations tomorrow, Monday, according to Axios.

According to the source, Qatari mediators continue their indirect diplomatic efforts in an attempt to reach an agreement between Washington and Tehran.

They will hold separate meetings on September 28 with Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and U.S. Special Presidential Envoy Stephen Wittykoff.

The site indicates that it is still unclear whether the two parties will be able to overcome their existing differences during the negotiations.

Before that, U.S. President Donald Trump confirmed that the United States will hold a new round of negotiations with Iran next week.

In this context, Iran issued a warning on Sunday to ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz, stating that if they use "illegal routes," it will take action, while also asserting that diplomacy is the only solution to the conflict with the United States. This came a day after President Trump rejected an Iranian proposal to reopen the strait and cease hostilities.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi stated, "Our conditions are clear, and any step towards reopening the Strait of Hormuz is conditional on meeting these conditions."

He added, "Only a negotiated solution can get them out of this impasse."

For his part, Trump said that Iran wants to open "Hormuz" because "its economy is dying," noting that the United States has "comprehensive control" over the strait.

He confirmed that "Iran wants an agreement, and I want an agreement, but the proposal is unacceptable."

For his part, Iranian army spokesman Mohammad Akrami Nia said on Sunday that the United States could launch a new attack on Iran due to what he described as a tense regional situation, adding that Tehran is ready for confrontation and to inflict greater damage on Washington.

The authority established by Iran to manage the strait warned ships of the consequences if they used "illegal routes" in the region.

It stated that "this carries risks of financial and human losses for the ship, the owner, the captain, and the crew, and severely restricts their future passage through the Strait of Hormuz."
