Trump complains about “duplicitous” Iranian leadership
President Donald Trump called Iran’s leadership “unbelievably duplicitous” in how Tehran approaches the attempts to find a diplomatic pathway towards reopening the Strait of Hormuz.
President Donald Trump expressed his frustration with Iran's leadership, describing them as "unbelievably duplicitous" in their approach to diplomatic efforts aimed at reopening the Strait of Hormuz. In a statement on his Truth Social platform, Trump noted that Iran frequently initiates meetings, only to later claim they are not discussing anything and are only engaging with Oman.
The president emphasized that Iran's claims about controlling the Strait of Hormuz are false, as the U.S. Navy and its blockade of the waterway remain in control. Trump reiterated his stance that the U.S. blockade will not be lifted until Iran definitively renounces its nuclear ambitions. Earlier on August 3, Trump had described the upcoming talks with Iran as a "last chance" for the country to reach an agreement and prevent further escalation of U.S. strikes.
