伊朗最高领袖莫杰塔巴·哈梅内伊已授权政府开展和平谈判，表明可能出现外交突破口，而人们对与美国和以色列重新爆发冲突的担忧日益加剧。
Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei has given the government the go-ahead to hold peace talks, signaling a potential diplomatic opening as fears of a renewed conflict with the US and Israel grow.
“我们正努力通过对话解决问题，在这方面，最高领袖也授予了政府某些权力，”伊朗总统马苏德·佩泽希齐扬周一表示，据官方伊斯兰共和国通讯社报道。
“We are striving to resolve the issue through dialogue and, in this regard, the Supreme Leader has also granted certain powers to the government,” Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said Monday, cited by the state-run Islamic Republic News Agency.
报道发布后，伦敦布伦特原油期货下跌约6%，每桶交易价接近106美元。由于担忧战争重燃，这一国际基准价格10月曾飙升至每桶110美元以上，当时美国总统唐纳德·特朗普威胁在中期选举后恢复打击。
Brent crude futures slumped about 6% to trade near $106 a barrel in London following the report. The international benchmark rallied beyond $110 a barrel in October due to concerns over a rekindling of the war, with US President Donald Trump threatening to resume strikes after the midterm elections.
佩泽希齐扬没有澄清伊朗强硬派最高领袖授予了哪些具体权力，也未说明德黑兰的谈判立场是否可能出现更广泛的转变。
Pezeshkian did not clarify what specific powers were granted by Iran’s hardline supreme leader or whether a broader change in Tehran’s negotiating stance can be expected.
此番言论是在Axios报道特朗普在一次电话中告诉以色列总理本杰明·内塔尼亚胡，他仍愿意给外交解决与伊朗冲突留出更多时间之后发表的。与此同时，一个伊朗代表团访问了多哈——多哈是德黑兰与华盛顿之间谈判的关键调解人——以争取最后时刻的突破。
The remarks came after Axios reported that Trump told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, in a phone call, that he remains open to allowing more time for a diplomatic solution to the conflict with Iran. At the same time, an Iranian delegation visited Doha — a key mediator in talks between Tehran and Washington —to pursue a last-minute breakthrough.
伊朗官员一再表示，除非美国解除其经济封锁，否则该国将放宽霍尔木兹海峡的能源运输并回归正式谈判。
Iranian officials have reiterated that the country will ease energy transport through the Strait of Hormuz and return to formal negotiations only after the US lifts its economic blockade.
