President Trump said he was rejecting an Iranian plan to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, describing the proposal as not acceptable.
The plan put forward by Iran was reported to be similar to a memorandum of understanding previously agreed upon between the United States and Iran back in June, suggesting a continuation of earlier diplomatic contacts over the strategically vital waterway.
The Strait of Hormuz remains one of the world's most important shipping routes for oil exports, and any disruption or negotiation over its status carries significant implications for global energy markets and regional security.
Trump's rejection of the latest Iranian proposal indicates continued friction between Washington and Tehran despite the earlier memorandum of understanding, though further details on the specific terms of the rejected plan or Iran's response were not provided.
