China's President Xi Jinping sent a congratulatory letter to the high-level dialogue marking the fifth anniversary of the Global Development Initiative, Xinhua reported.

US and Iranian delegations in New York have moved from initial diplomatic contact to technical-level consultations, with technical experts joining after first-round meetings between US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, sources told Al Jazeera. Qatar has mediated the talks for months. Iran has proposed a conditional “7-day” plan: if the US lifts its blockade, Iran would reopen the Strait of Hormuz — an accelerated alternative to a previously discussed 60-day process. Core issues under discussion are sanctions relief, relaxation of limits on Iranian oil exports, unfreezing Iranian assets, and future management of the Strait of Hormuz, including whether Iran and Oman could resume some form of joint management within a framework involving the US and regional states and specific rules for US naval transits. Iranian delegates were initially denied US visas but were later allowed to enter; sources say disagreements remain but talks are making some progress and continue.
