Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi reported on social media that some countries have started mediation efforts aimed at resolving the ongoing conflict between Iran, the US, and Israel. He emphasized Iran's commitment to preserving national dignity and sovereignty while demanding concessions from the US and Israel, who initiated the airstrikes. The identity of the mediating countries was not disclosed. Raisi’s statements reflect a broader call within the international community for negotiations to address various issues, including Iran's nuclear program.

European leaders have echoed this call, pressing for immediate de-escalation and diplomatic engagement to secure lasting peace in the region. Key figures such as UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and French President Emmanuel Macron have stressed the importance of negotiation amidst the ongoing turmoil, with Macron highlighting the necessity of halting airstrikes as a prerequisite for sustainable peace. However, despite these diplomatic overtures, there remains skepticism about the potential for immediate results due to the entrenched positions of both the US and Israel.

Former US President Donald Trump has expressed strong opposition to negotiation, stating that any agreement with Iran would only be possible under conditions of 'unconditional surrender.' His comments underscore America’s continuing military posture in the region and its commitment to confronting Iranian authority. Meanwhile, reports suggest that military operations on both sides persist, with Iranian forces responding to US and Israeli strikes, thereby complicating the prospects for achieving a ceasefire or successful diplomatic resolution.
