Donald Trump is unlikely to accept Iran’s latest proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, according to a CNN report citing sources. The plan suggests reopening the key shipping route while leaving Iran’s nuclear programme for later talks. Officials said such a move could remove US leverage. They remain concerned about Iran’s uranium stockpile and enrichment. Trump shared his view during a meeting with national security officials. Talks between the two sides are ongoing, but differences remain. Iran has rejected US demands, calling them “illegal and irrational.” Oil prices have risen as uncertainty over the strait continues.
