Trump suggests deal to reopen Strait of Hormuz may be imminent
U.S. President Donald Trump stated that a deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz could be announced soon, potentially as early as Wednesday. He described talks with Iran as "very good" and a "last chance." Trump also warned Iran would be "hit really hard" if no deal is reached. Meanwhile, a U.S. official indicated that temporary routes through the Strait would require no permits or fees, and no party would control navigation. Iran and Oman are reportedly working on a plan to reopen the waterway.
