President Trump says U.S. talks with Iran are scheduled to begin today as the administration seeks a diplomatic solution to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and address Tehran’s nuclear program. Trump delayed potential military action to allow negotiations to move forward. Shipping traffic through the strategic waterway remains disrupted following recent attacks on commercial vessels. Meanwhile, Iran says there are no direct talks with Washington and insists conditions in the strategic waterway will not fully normalize while tensions with the U.S. continue.
