Trump responds to Iran's ceasefire plan
U.S. President Donald Trump rejected Iran's proposal for a seven-day ceasefire, asserting that the United States has complete control over the Strait of Hormuz and is imposing a significant blockade on it. He expected that military operations against Iran would resume after the upcoming U.S. midterm elections. In contrast, Iran proposed a plan through Qatar that included a ceasefire for seven days, reopening the strait, and lifting sanctions, in exchange for Washington meeting certain conditions, such as freeing frozen Iranian assets and withdrawing the blockade. The two sides exchanged threats regarding Iran's ability to prevent further deterioration of the strait's situation, while the United States accused Tehran of trying to impose its terms through force.
