Trump rejects Iran Hormuz plan as tensions hold

Trump has dismissed Iran's seven-day proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, calling it unacceptable, while Tehran says it no longer trusts direct negotiations with Washington and is waiting on mediators. The standoff keeps one of the world's most critical oil shipping chokepoints closed, with Iran's Foreign Minister Araghchi declining to engage Trump directly.
