Donald Trump has doubled down on a naval blockade against Iran, refusing to lift it unless Tehran agrees to strict nuclear conditions. Calling the pressure more effective than bombing, Trump claimed Iran is 'choking like a stuffed pig' under economic strain. The US has rejected Iran’s proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz before nuclear talks, deepening the deadlock. While military strike plans reportedly exist, Washington is relying on economic pressure for now. Iran has warned of “unprecedented” retaliation if the blockade continues. With neither side backing down, tensions remain high, impacting global oil markets and raising fears of further escalation in the region.
