‘Was Strait of Hormuz ever closed before?’: Iran REJECTS ‘unrealistic, illogical’ US talks amid war
Iran rejects US peace talks as “unrealistic and illogical” amid escalating war and rising tensions in the Strait of Hormuz. President Donald Trump warns Iran to reopen Hormuz or face major military retaliation targeting oil and energy infrastructure. The Strait of Hormuz crisis has disrupted global oil supply, with tanker traffic collapsing and energy markets under pressure. Iran accuses the US of preparing ground operations while refusing negotiations under what it calls “criminal” demands. As the Middle East conflict deepens, fears grow over a wider war impacting global economy, shipping routes, and US strategic interests.
