According to 深潮 TechFlow, on November 12, citing Jin10 Data, The Wall Street Journal reported, citing U.S. and Middle Eastern officials, that Trump is open to Vice President Vance restarting negotiations with Iran and has authorized him to lead the consultations. Vance is considering direct talks with Rezaei, Secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, and Rezaei, former commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps; the date has not been set, and Doha is seen as a potential venue. U.S. officials emphasized that the discussions remain at an early stage.

The two sides' differences remain focused on lifting the naval blockade, releasing frozen assets and easing oil sanctions. Iranian diplomats and some Middle Eastern mediators are skeptical about the prospects of negotiations. Trump said the U.S. will maintain the blockade and deploy additional aircraft carriers to the region; Secretary of State Rubio said there is currently no need to launch a large-scale military operation, and economic pressure is working.
