Trump Rejects Iran’s Seven-Day Plan To Reopen Strait Of Hormuz
US President Donald Trump has rejected Iran’s seven-day proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and restart nuclear talks, adding fresh uncertainty to efforts to end the months-long conflict. Tehran had offered to restore normal maritime passage within a week if Washington lifted its naval blockade of Iranian ports, eased sanctions on Iranian oil sales, released frozen Iranian assets and agreed to a regional ceasefire. The Strait of Hormuz remains a critical global energy route, with disruptions affecting oil flows and energy prices. Despite the rejection, both sides have indicated that diplomacy remains possible, with Qatar continuing to mediate between Washington and Tehran.
