Iran has proposed a plan to reopen the strategic Strait of Hormuz and halt regional fighting within seven days, according to reports. The waterway, which is critical to the global oil supply, sits at the center of an ongoing conflict between the United States and Iran that has reached a stalemate after nearly seven months.
Within hours of the proposal, US President Donald Trump reportedly rejected the plan. According to the Wall Street Journal, Trump was privately skeptical that Iran would fulfill his demands and indicated to aides that he expects to resume bombing.
