As intensive negotiations between Iran and the Qatari mediator continue for several consecutive days in Doha, and signs of a change in tone emerge, including positive assessments from Araqchi and Trump regarding the dialogue process, the possibility of an agreement has once again come to the forefront, while the shadow of war still looms over regional equations. The narrative from the Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council about the sending and receiving of several rounds of messages between Tehran and Washington, the presentation of seven main conditions, and Iran's expectation for a final response from the U.S. indicates that the path of diplomacy has reached a sensitive stage; a stage where Tehran is neither willing to retreat from its demands nor accepts the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz before its conditions are met. At the same time, Trump's call with Netanyahu has increased doubts about the seriousness of the White House in choosing the path of agreement. These developments are particularly significant on the eve of the midterm elections. It seems that the coming hours will be decisive not only for the fate of war and negotiation but also for the future of the regional security order.
