Iran has proposed opportunities for economic cooperation with the United States as part of ongoing diplomatic discussions.
Operative Information Center-OMM reports, citing CBS News and diplomatic sources, that during indirect negotiations with the United States, Iran suggested a potential agreement regarding the purchase of American aircraft, as well as exploring possibilities for joint investments in oil and gas projects.
Tehran is actively seeking the removal of international sanctions and has declared its readiness for economic collaboration with Washington to achieve this goal. According to the report, the proposals specifically include the acquisition of U.S.-manufactured aircraft and providing access to Iranian oil and gas fields for American investment. During these talks, Iranian diplomats reportedly advised US President Donald Trump's special envoy, Steve Witkoff, to decouple discussions regarding the nuclear program from other bilateral issues. The news outlet noted that the American official expressed support for this approach.
The relationship between Washington and Tehran remains a focal point of global geopolitics, particularly concerning the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). Since the U.S. withdrawal from the nuclear deal in 2018, Iran has faced rigorous economic sanctions affecting its energy, shipping, and financial sectors. Azerbaijan, sharing a border with Iran, closely monitors these diplomatic developments as they significantly impact regional stability, transit corridors, and energy security in the South Caucasus.
