Iran-Krieg: Iran: Öffnung der Straße von Hormus hängt von USA ab

Washington: After the 60-day deadline of the framework agreement ended, US President Donald Trump stated that Washington and Tehran are not conducting negotiations. "There are currently no talks or negotiations with the Islamic Republic of Iran, and none are planned," he announced on the Truth Social platform. The day before, Trump had told Fox News that representatives of the US government were in direct contact with Iranian Revolutionary Guards.

Trump had repeatedly claimed in the past that he had had talks or stood in discussions with Iran, only to have those claims later denied. Additionally, Trump asserted that the Hormuz Strait remained open. In reality, there have been multiple attacks on shipping vessels in recent days, with the volume of maritime traffic on the crucial trade route recently decreasing. The US naval blockade against Iranian ships remained intact, Trump reiterated.
