US and Iran Hold 'Very Good Discussions' on Reopening Strait of Hormuz, Trump Says

U.S. President Donald Trump announced that his administration held "very good discussions" with Iran, mediated by Oman, regarding the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, a critical chokepoint for global oil and liquefied natural gas shipments. Trump suggested a deal could be reached as early as Wednesday, though Iranian state media indicated a potential delay if the United States continues to issue threats. The ongoing negotiations aim to resolve a five-month conflict that has disrupted global energy supplies and caused oil prices to fluctuate.
