Pakistan has also been identified as involved in diplomatic efforts.
The involvement of multiple mediators reflects the difficulty of direct negotiations between Washington and Tehran.
Iran and the United States have accumulated decades of mistrust.
The current conflict adds another layer of military confrontation.
A mediated negotiation can therefore provide both sides with political space.
The mediators can communicate proposals without requiring the two governments to publicly make concessions immediately.
The Future of the Strait of Hormuz
The future of the Strait of Hormuz remains one of the biggest questions surrounding the conflict.
Iran’s proposal reportedly links reopening the waterway to several political and economic concessions from Washington.
That means Hormuz is not simply a shipping issue.
It has become a negotiating instrument.
If the waterway reopens, global markets could respond quickly.
If the blockade or disruption continues, energy markets may remain exposed to geopolitical risk.
Recent market reporting indicates that oil prices have already responded to expectations that the conflict could de-escalate, while analysts continue to warn that negotiations remain fragile.
