The Iranian regime sent a letter to Saudi Arabia earlier this week asking that the Gulf nation attempt to convince the Trump administration to restart nuclear negotiations, Reuters reported.

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian wrote to Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman that Tehran is not looking for confrontation and that the regime is “open to resolving the nuclear dispute through diplomacy, provided its rights are guaranteed,” per Reuters.

Bin Salman had met at the White House with U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday.

Jason Brodsky, policy director at United Against Nuclear Iran, posted on social media that “all the letters in the world will not change the fact that the maximum the Iranian regime is willing to offer does not meet the minimum the U.S. is willing to accept.”

He added that “especially with Iran weakened, it’s a fantasy to expect the U.S. to soften its demands.”
