US President Donald Trump issued a warning to Iran not to attempt to blackmail the United States regarding the Strait of Hormuz, amidst Tehran's inconsistent declarations about the waterway's status. Trump stated that while discussions are ongoing, Iran's efforts to close the strait would not intimidate the US. He expressed optimism about reaching a deal, noting that negotiations have been ongoing for 47 years. Meanwhile, Iran's Supreme National Security Council announced it is reviewing new proposals from the US, facilitated by the commander of the Pakistani army acting as a mediator. Despite this, Iran's negotiators emphasized they would not make any compromises in their dealings with Washington. Iran's military command reaffirmed that the situation in the Strait of Hormuz would remain strictly controlled until the US lifts its naval blockade, which it claims has violated previous agreements. However, Iranian state media later reported that control of the strait had reverted to its prior status, under the management of Iranian armed forces.
