President Donald Trump said Tuesday that talks with Iran over the Strait of Hormuz were advancing and predicted the strategic waterway would reopen soon, even as Iranian state media reported that Tehran would postpone any agreement with Oman while the president continued issuing military threats.
Speaking to Fox News, President Trump said US and Iranian officials held an “all-day negotiation” on Tuesday and described the discussions as productive.
“The Strait of Hormuz will open very soon,” the president said.
The proposal under discussion would create a renewable 60-day arrangement between Oman and Iran covering the Strait of Hormuz, the regional sources said.
He added, “Any step taken by the Americans will be met with a counter-step by Iran, with much greater force.”
