US President Donald Trump said the conflict with Iran will end soon after rejecting Tehran's latest peace offer, according to multiple reports. The administration remains focused on resolving disputes over oil shipments and economic sanctions. Trump praised recent arrests of five men near a UK air base used in the war against Iran, suggesting progress in counterterrorism efforts.
The US Treasury chief indicated that Iran might send its final oil shipment to China within two weeks, despite ongoing sanctions. This comes as China has reportedly reduced its support for Iran, according to US officials. Meanwhile, an Iranian general warned that the Strait of Hormuz will stay closed until the US ends its economic warfare.
The situation remains tense, with both sides exchanging accusations. The US claims Iran is obstructing negotiations, while Iran accuses the US of imposing an economic blockade. The outcome of these tensions could significantly impact regional stability and global oil markets.
The conflict, which began in February 2026, has seen periodic clashes and diplomatic standoffs. With no immediate resolution in sight, the situation continues to evolve, affecting international trade and security.
