US President Donald Trump announced on Thursday that the United States is engaged in constructive talks with Iran and will refrain from launching an attack on the nation prior to the November midterm congressional elections. Trump confirmed in a post on Truth Social that the US blockade on Iranian ports remains intact and that oil continues to pass through the Strait of Hormuz.
He reiterated that the United States and Israel carried out strikes against Iran in February, highlighting that the conflict, costing $3 billion monthly, has emerged as a crucial topic in the US political arena. Trump advocates for complete isolation of Iran and anticipates a deal to be reached following the elections. Despite his statements, Iran and the US have exchanged proposals in recent weeks to bring an end to the war and resume the operation of the Strait of Hormuz, a crucial international energy shipping passage. However, Trump dismissed Tehran's most recent proposal.
