Washington/Tehran — Margalla News: Iran proposed a plan that would reopen the Strait of Hormuz within seven days and seek to halt fighting across the Middle East.

Reuters reported that Tehran had transmitted the proposal to the United States and initially said it was awaiting a formal American response.

US President Donald Trump later said on Saturday that he had rejected the Iranian proposal.

The initiative linked reopening the strategic waterway to broader diplomatic and military conditions, while tensions between Washington and Tehran remain high.
