President Trump said talks with Iran would resume next week, despite turning down Tehran's proposal for a seven-day truce and the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz.

U.S. President Donald Trump said Sunday that he expects talks with Iran to resume next week, despite having rejected a proposal from Tehran for a seven-day truce followed by the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, according to France 24.
Trump has previously raised the prospect of renewed diplomatic engagement with Iran, and his latest comments suggest talks could move forward even after the rejection of Iran's specific truce and shipping-lane proposal.
The Strait of Hormuz is a critical global shipping route for oil exports, and any disruption to or reopening of traffic through it carries significant implications for international energy markets. The report's available excerpt does not specify the current status of the strait or the reasons Trump gave for rejecting Tehran's proposal.
Iranian officials were not quoted directly in the available excerpt responding to Trump's rejection of the truce proposal or his expectation of talks resuming next week.
The report does not provide further detail on the format, location, or participants expected in the anticipated talks, nor does it specify the broader state of U.S.-Iran relations beyond the truce proposal and Trump's comments.
Further developments are expected as both sides approach the talks Trump said he anticipates taking place next week.
