The White House declined to comment on details of Iran's response, while Iran remains deeply distrustful of the United States.

CoinFeed reported on May 1st that, according to Jinshi News, when asked about Iran's proposal to Pakistan, the White House stated that it would not disclose details of private diplomatic dialogues, and negotiations are ongoing. It remains unclear whether Iran's latest proposal is sufficient to bring both sides back to the negotiating table. An Iranian source stated that Tehran might consider restarting negotiations if the US lifts its blockade of Iranian ports and Iran fully reopens the Strait of Hormuz. The US has made it clear that Iran should unconditionally allow any ships to pass through the strait; it is unclear whether Iran's latest proposal represents this concession. The source indicated that Iran still deeply distrusts the US and does not understand why the US abandoned dialogue in the previous round of negotiations with Pakistan.
