アラブ側の仲介筋によると、イランは非公式には和平交渉に対してより前向きな姿勢を示しており、米国は交渉開始時に双方が参加できるよう、イランのアラグチ外相とカリバフ議長を暗殺リストから4～5日間一時的に除外した。トルコ、エジプト、パキスタンの仲介役は、米イラン当局者による会談を早ければ今週中に開催するよう働きかけている。双方の戦後の要求は、戦前のそれをはるかに上回っている。イランは米国に対し、戦争被害の賠償と中東の軍事基地の閉鎖を要求しているほか、ホルムズ海峡を通過する国際海運業者に料金を支払うよう求めている。一方、米国はイランに対し、ウラン濃縮の停止、海峡の自由航行の回復、ミサイル計画の制限、および地域の民兵組織への支援の停止を要求している。アナリストらは、双方が戦争の代償が耐え難いものと判断した場合、まずは最低限の停戦合意に達し、その後の交渉で包括的な解決策を模索するという、わずかな余地が残されていると見ている。考えられる道筋としては、イランが数年間ウラン濃縮活動を一時停止し、地域的な不侵略条約を締結することで制裁の段階的な緩和と引き換えにし、核物質の処分やミサイル計画などの課題は今後の解決に委ねるというものがある。（金十）
