据《华尔街日报》报道,调解方正敦促伊朗在其核计划问题上作出让步,以努力重启与美国的停火谈判。
Mediators are pressing Iran to make concessions on its nuclear program in an effort to revive ceasefire negotiations with the US, The Wall Street Journal reported.
该报称,此举发生在美国总统唐纳德·特朗普拒绝伊朗提出的为期七天的停火提案之后。该提案本将重新开放霍尔木兹海峡,并结束美国对伊朗港口的封锁。
The initiative follows US President Donald Trump's rejection of an Iranian proposal for a seven-day ceasefire that would have reopened the Strait of Hormuz and ended the US blockade of Iranian ports, according to the Journal.
调解方将这一努力描述为促使德黑兰在核计划问题上取得进展的“长距离尝试”,而伊朗迄今几乎没有表现出愿意讨论该问题的迹象。
Mediators described the effort as a long-shot attempt to secure movement from Tehran on its nuclear program, while Iran has so far given little indication that it is prepared to discuss the issue.
伊朗外交部长阿巴斯·阿拉格奇周日表示,德黑兰仍对谈判持开放态度,但将对任何新的军事行动作出回应。
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said Sunday that Tehran remained open to negotiations but would respond to renewed military action.
当被问及该报的报道时,阿拉格奇在接受美国全国广播公司(NBC)新闻采访时表示:“我们已完全做好战争重启的准备。”
"We are fully prepared for the war to resume," Araghchi told NBC News when asked about the Journal report.
他补充道:“面对任何新的侵略,我们都将坚定不移,即使这意味着末日之战。但与此同时,我们也准备好进行外交斡旋。选择权在特朗普总统手中。”
"We stand firm in the face of any new aggression, even if it comes to a doomsday war. But at the same time we stand ready for diplomacy. It is up to President Trump to choose," he added.
阿拉伯调解方表示,自特朗普拒绝其停火提案以来,伊朗未作出任何让步;而海湾官员则表示,德黑兰希望华盛顿在谈判推进之前先提供让步。
Arab mediators said Iran had made no concessions since Trump rejected its ceasefire proposal, while Gulf officials said Tehran wants Washington to offer concessions before negotiations advance.
卡塔尔首相谢赫·穆罕默德·本·阿卜杜勒拉赫曼·本·贾西姆·阿勒萨尼表示,冲突正变得越来越难以解决。他的国家正在华盛顿和德黑兰之间传递信息。
Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani, whose country is relaying messages between Washington and Tehran, said the conflict was becoming increasingly difficult to resolve.
他早些时候在纽约举行的卡塔尔经济论坛联合国大会特别版会议上表示:“这场冲突非常复杂。”
"This conflict is very complex," he said, earlier in New York at a special UN General Assembly edition of the Qatar Economic Forum.
伊朗希望华盛顿回到六月达成的一项谅解备忘录,该备忘录包括重新开放霍尔木兹海峡,并最终开始核谈判,以换取包括解除制裁、解冻海外持有的数十亿美元伊朗资金以及结束美国封锁在内的措施。
Iran wants Washington to return to a memorandum of understanding reached in June that included reopening the Strait of Hormuz and eventually beginning nuclear negotiations in exchange for measures including sanctions relief, the unfreezing of billions of dollars in Iranian funds held overseas and an end to the US blockade.
然而,美国官员表示,特朗普已不再希望重返该协议,而华盛顿方面则加强了制裁并维持了封锁。
US officials, however, said Trump no longer wants to return to that agreement, while Washington has tightened sanctions and maintained its blockade.
一位参与谈判的资深中东官员表示,伊朗可能会在核计划上做出妥协,但要求获得明确保证,即在美伊达成任何协议后,以色列不会再次发动袭击。
A senior Middle Eastern official involved in the talks said Iran could compromise on its nuclear program but would require explicit assurances that Israel would not attack again after any US-Iran agreement.
