U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday criticized Iran's denial of direct diplomatic talks, calling their leadership "unbelievably duplicitous." Trump asserted that a U.S. naval blockade would remain until a deal or "total surrender" is achieved, and that the Strait of Hormuz is under full American military control. He stated that the U.S. was poised for a major military strike but halted it after Iranian officials, backed by regional allies, requested talks. Trump outlined a two-phase framework for discussions: immediate opening of the Strait of Hormuz, followed by the denuclearization of Iran, emphasizing this is Tehran's "last chance for them to sign a good document." Conversely, a senior Iranian military adviser, Mohsen Rezaei, denied direct talks with the U.S., stating Tehran is only negotiating with Oman and threatened U.S. casualties if the naval blockade persists.
