Iran: Araghchi says contacts continue over seven-day plan

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said on 28 October 2026 that Tehran remained in close contact with mediators to discuss implementation of its seven-day plan aimed at ending the war.

In his message reported by Reuters and Al Hadath, he says diplomacy is still being given a chance and considers the plan executable in less than a week if its provisions are implemented. That duration is the minister's assessment, with no concluded agreement established.

Iran's proposal links reopening the Strait of Hormuz to Tehran's conditions. The accounts describe continued Qatari mediation after Donald Trump rejected an earlier proposal. They establish neither an actual reopening nor a timetable accepted by the parties.
