Did Iran receive a U.S. response to its Qatari-mediated Hormuz proposal in September 2026?

Yes. On September 30, 2026, Iranian government spokeswoman Fatemeh Mohajerani said Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi had received the United States’ response to a proposal conveyed through Qatari mediation, according to state broadcaster IRIB as reported by Anadolu Agency. Mohajerani did not disclose the contents of Washington’s reply or say what Tehran’s next step would be.

The exchange followed Iran’s conditions for reopening the Strait of Hormuz — including an end to U.S. military and economic pressure, the release of frozen or restricted Iranian assets, and agreement on a safe shipping route — which Tehran said it conveyed via Qatar during talks on the sidelines of the U.N. General Assembly. President Masoud Pezeshkian separately said Tehran was working to ensure the success of the Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding.
