Mohammad-Bagher Ghalibaf confirmed that Tehran is transmitting conditions for renewed negotiations through intermediaries. These announcements coincided with demonstrations in several cities, including Isfahan, where retired steelworkers marched toward the provincial governor’s office. The protests were fueled by economic pressures, including high inflation, medical costs, and pension issues. The Iranian currency also resumed its decline, with the dollar trading at approximately 232,100 tomans on September 20.
