Trump not happy with latest Iran proposal to end the war, US official says
Trump’s advisers discussed the offer as U.S. officials kept red lines on Iran’s nuclear program and said the proposal fell short of Washington’s terms.
- On Monday, President Donald Trump met with national security advisers to review an Iranian proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, but officials indicated he remains dissatisfied because the plan postpones nuclear negotiations.
- Following the start of the joint US-Israeli war on February 28, 2026, Iran largely blockaded the Strait of Hormuz, halting the flow of approximately 20 percent of global oil and gas supplies.
- Secretary of State Marco Rubio rejected the terms, stating any agreement must definitively prevent Iran from "sprinting toward a nuclear weapon," while US officials insist nuclear issues be addressed from the outset.
- Hopes for a quick resolution dimmed after the meeting as US officials maintained their "red lines" regarding the nuclear program, leaving the vital waterway effectively closed and energy prices elevated.
- Global energy markets face continued pressure as the impasse persists, with international observers questioning the potential for a diplomatic off-ramp while Iran seeks to retain control of the waterway.
