US President Donald Trump said he’ll only consider a halt to attacks on Iran when the Strait of
Hormuz is reopened, sowing further confusion about how long he’s prepared to continue the war.
Iran’s “New Regime President” has asked the US for a ceasefire, Trump said in a social-media post on Wednesday, possibly referring to comments Masoud Pezeshkian made Tuesday that the Islamic Republic has “the necessary will” to end this war — with certain guarantees.
“We will consider when Hormuz Strait is open, free, and clear,” Trump said. “Until then, we are blasting Iran into oblivion.”
