Donald Trump has officially rejected Iran’s proposed seven-day plan to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, describing the arrangement as unacceptable and claiming that Tehran is “losing so badly” in the ongoing conflict. The rejection comes as a significant escalation in diplomatic tensions between the two nations.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi confirmed that his country is still waiting for a formal response from the United States regarding the proposal. His statement was made hours after Trump publicly dismissed the roadmap on social media, intensifying the standoff over one of the world’s most critical shipping lanes.
The breakdown in negotiations marks a further deterioration in relations, with Iranian President Masoud Pezeskian stating that Iran no longer trusts the possibility of talks with Washington. The US-Israeli military campaign against Iran continues to unfold, leaving the Strait of Hormuz in a state of uncertainty as both sides dig in their heels.
As the situation develops, questions remain about the potential for further escalation and the impact on global energy supplies. The rejection of the seven-day deal signals a hardening of positions on both sides, with little immediate prospect of a diplomatic resolution to the crisis.
