Iran proposes plan to reopen Strait of Hormuz, Trump reportedly refuses

The United States had not issued a public response as of Saturday to a proposal from Iran aimed at reopening the Strait of Hormuz, though reports indicated that President Donald Trump had rejected the plan, according to France 24.

The strait, a critical waterway for global oil shipments, has been at the center of an ongoing standoff between Washington and Tehran that has persisted for nearly seven months without resolution.

New mediation efforts were reported to have taken place during the past week, suggesting continued diplomatic engagement even as the two sides remain at odds over the terms of any potential agreement.

The lack of a formal US response, combined with reports of Trump's rejection, points to continued uncertainty over how and when the standoff over the strategic waterway might be resolved.
