Tehran, Iran — Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has confirmed that Iran is preparing an official response to a recent letter sent by United States President Donald Trump. The response will be issued “in the coming days” through official diplomatic channels, according to Araghchi’s statement during a press briefing in Tehran on Thursday.

The letter from Trump, described by Araghchi as “mostly threatening,” reportedly included a firm two-month deadline for Iran to agree to a new nuclear deal. Failure to comply, the letter warned, could lead to potential military repercussions. This ultimatum follows a series of escalating tensions between the two countries over the status of the 2015 nuclear agreement, which the Trump administration withdrew from in 2018.

Despite the threatening tone, Araghchi also pointed out that the letter contained “opportunities” that could pave the way for progress in U.S.-Iran relations. “I promise to the people that, as foreign policy agents, we will not spare any effort to serve the people, and will not miss any opportunity,” he stated, signaling a willingness to explore diplomatic openings if they serve Iran’s national interests.

The announcement comes at a critical moment as Iran faces increasing international scrutiny and domestic pressure. Araghchi’s remarks suggest a carefully measured approach, balancing resistance against external threats with the possibility of constructive dialogue. The government appears to be weighing its options cautiously before issuing a response that could shape the future of regional stability and international relations.

Analysts believe that Iran’s upcoming response will be pivotal. A move toward diplomacy could ease tensions, while a hardline rebuttal could escalate the already strained situation. Either way, the eyes of the world are on Tehran as it prepares to answer an ultimatum that could redefine its relationship with Washington.

As the deadline set by Trump looms, Iran’s calculated response will likely indicate whether the current standoff leads to conflict or cautious cooperation.
