US President Donald Trump on Saturday rejected an Iranianproposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, saying Washington has “total control”over the strategic maritime gateway.
“Iran trapped itself by closing the Strait of Hormuz and weimposed the largest blockade in military history on it,” he said. “We built asteel wall around the Strait of Hormuz and Iran no longer has money because ofits closure.”
Under the proposal, Iran would reopen the Strait of Hormuzand resume nuclear talks within a week in exchange for the United Stateslifting its naval blockade, removing sanctions on Iranian oil sales andreinstating a ceasefire across the region. US negotiators had already madeclear to Araghchi during the talks that Washington did not consider Iran tocontrol the waterway and therefore could not make demands over its reopening.
