What happened
U.S. and Iranian negotiators in New York are discussing a possible phased deal to end a nearly seven-month conflict. Central issues include reopening the Strait of Hormuz and lifting the U.S. economic blockade. An Iranian official proposed a staged agreement where Iran allows ships to pass through the Strait of Hormuz while the U.S. lifts its blockade, which could also grant Iran access to some frozen assets. The proposal would require President Donald Trump to accept a temporary arrangement.

Why it matters
The Strait of Hormuz is a major route for global oil supplies. The talks aim to resolve conflict and ease economic pressure on Iran, which could stabilize regional oil markets and reduce instability in the Middle East.
An official from New York City sought a meeting with the UN ambassador representing Iran.
