Tehran is reviewing the U.S. response to its proposal to end hostilities, but many differences remain between the Iranian and U.S. positions as diplomacy continues, a senior Iranian official told Reuters on Wednesday.

A reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and lifting of the U.S. naval blockade on Iran were discussed during indirect talks with the U.S. on Tuesday, the official said.
