U.S. President Donald Trump has claimed that talks with Iran are currently ongoing.
He described this as Iran’s “last chance to sign a good deal.” Speaking to reporters at the White House, he stated that the negotiations had begun at Iran’s request.
Trump accused the Iranian leadership of duplicity, sharing a post on the social media platform Truth Social.
He noted that Iranian leaders have requested meetings for talks but publicly claim that there are no negotiations between the two countries.
The U.S. President asserted, “The Strait of Hormuz is already fully under U.S. Navy control, and nothing reaches Iran without their permission. This situation will continue until a deal is made or Iran surrenders.”
Meanwhile, Trump appealed to American companies on Monday to immediately lower fuel prices.
Analysts suggest that rising fuel costs and inflation concerns could become significant challenges for the Republican Party ahead of the November midterm elections.
If inflation pressures persist, the Republican Party risks losing its majority in the House of Representatives, potentially weakening its control over Congress.
