Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has stated that US President Donald Trump's letter would be delivered by an Arab state envoy to the Islamic Republic in the coming days.

Why it matters:
Trump recently stated he sent a letter to Iran's leader, urging either negotiation or preparation for military action.


The big picture:
Trump's announcement sparked media speculation regarding the letter and Tehran's potential response.

On Wednesday, Iran's top diplomat said that while Trump wrote a letter, Iranian officials haven't received it.

What he's saying:

- Arrangements have been made for a special envoy from an Arab country to deliver the letter to Tehran in the coming days.

- Regarding Iran’s nuclear program, Iran has always been open to negotiations, but these talks must be fair and respectful.

- We do not accept any restrictions beyond this treaty.
