To reach a deal with Iran that reopens the economically vital Strait of Hormuz, President Donald Trump may need to do something out of character — compromise.
While both sides say a deal is close, the Trump administration has ruled out any arrangement that would cement Iran’s grip over the Persian Gulf waterway, including Tehran charging fees.
Trump also continues to claim that the Strait of Hormuz is open to commercial shipping.
“But they can always shoot something, they always have something or drop a mine,” Trump said of Iran.
The Trump administration has said repeatedly that it is strongly opposed to any arrangement that would see Iran charge fees.
