Iran's new leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, has not yet given his negotiating team the authority to engage with the United States. This delay comes as the Trump administration has offered a short ceasefire window of a few days for Iran to return to talks. Khamenei is expected to provide a definitive answer on whether to authorize negotiations within the next two days. The decision will determine if Iran will meet the US-imposed deadline or risk a resumption of hostilities.
