Iranian officials united on negotiation proposals: vice president

Published June 7, 2026 Updated June 7, 2026 11:47am

Iranian First Vice President Mohammad Reza Aref says all senior officials are fully aligned on Iran’s negotiating strategy, dismissing the possibility of differences over the text or proposals under discussion, state broadcaster Press TV reports.

Speaking during a visit to the Iranian Customs Administration, Aref says Tehran has pursued a clear and coordinated approach in negotiations with the US.

“The Islamic Republic of Iran has had a specific strategy in the negotiations, and all officials have pursued it with complete coordination,” he states, adding that officials have “no differences regarding the text and proposals of the negotiations.”

Aref also highlights that Iran has gained valuable lessons in crisis management during the current war, as well as a 12-day conflict with Israel last year.
